Marching along with our cloud connector<\/a> strategy, today we integrated QuestionPro with Facebook Connect.<\/p>\n

What is Facebook Connect?<\/b>
\nFacebook Connect is a platform (developed by Facebook) to allow external sites like blogs, forums etc. to use Facebook’s strong userbase for authentication. What is means is that, if you have a Facebook account, you can simply use that account (email\/password) to login to other sites.<\/p>\n

How does that help with Surveys?<\/b>
\nIf you are running a survey<\/a> directed at your Facebook users, you can enable Facebook Connect on your survey<\/a> for authentication. This will give you a couple of quick hits:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. You know that all users who are taking the survey are legitimate Facebook users<\/li>\n
  2. You’ll be able to detect duplicate responses from the same FB user easily<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Whats Next?<\/b>
    \nThis is our first step in integrating social networks into surveys and data collection. Our roadmap includes the following:<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Allow facebook users to invite other FB users (friends) to take the survey – Viral Expansion Loop.<\/li>\n
    2. Put a story on the user’s Newsfeed that they took the survey — allows others to know about the survey.<\/li>\n
    3. Allow results to be shared\/selectively with your social cloud.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      We’ll be rolling out these features as add-ons to the Facebook Connector for QuestionPro.<\/p>\n
