Socialconnect for Facebook Helps Members Virally Promote UGOBI Across the Social Networking Website

User Group for Oracle Business Intelligence (UGOBI) today announced that they have added a new feature to UGOBI.com called SocialConnect which leverages the Facebook Connect technology, allowing members to sign-in to UGOBI’s private online community using their Facebook credentials. Once signed in, members have the option to post updates to their personal Facebook wall when they perform any of the following actions within UGOBI.com:
Post or comment on blogs
Upload photos to a gallery
Promote an event they see on UGOBI.com
Update their personal profiles
Post personal files or links
Post job openings within the UGOBI Career Center
Update their resumés/CVs within their personal profiles
Comment on news they have read on your website
Post to the UGOBI Forums
As members push activities to the walls of their Facebook profiles, these updates are included on the Facebook feeds of all their connected friends. The more information shared across open social networking websites like Facebook, the greater the opportunity to drive traffic back to UGOBI — thus increasing member registrations, interactions, and brand recognition for UGOBI.
FAQs
How would a UGOBI member sign-in to UGOBI.com using their Facebook username/password?
It’s simple. The member would click on the Facebook Connect icon in blue and a small pop-up would appear that would allow them to login using their Facebook credentials.
How would a member post content on UGOBI.com that would appear on their Facebook wall?
A member is presented with the option of posting a link to the photo on the wall of his or her Facebook profile. Once posted, the photo will appear on the member’s wall and thus their friends’ Facebook homepage feeds.
Is my content still secure within my community if I am using SocialConnect on UGOBI.com?
Yes, though a member’s Facebook wall may feature links to content on UGOBI.com, access to private content is controlled by your community’s security settings. To access private content, individuals must be registered and approved members. Therefore, the posting of this content by your members may help entice people to join UGOBI but will not expose secure content.
