Simply because, many (TechCrunch included) instead of adopting OpenID that is around for several years now, prefer to use Facebook Connect. Maybe because it seems too Open(not true at all), maybe because it does not recruit matricola like Facebook, nonetheless this it is a valid technology and I'm happy that FB is moving towards that direction... against the tendency ...

It seems OpenId people did not have too much experience managing user identity at the beginning so it was really hard to use. 2 years has passed and the adoption is still very slow. Whereas facebook connect is being integrated by thousands of small sites instantly. It's kinda amazing that their team did great job on every single project. I agree.

The last time I checked, there where simply not enough sites I use represented there. Hence f Connect is a chance for both companies to build a larger network with a good brand recognition.

NO One is going to allow their credit cards to facebook it’s been shown to be the case but I dont mind certain shops knowing my facebook url

this is the distributed identity frameworks at work

if I can login to a shop and send my details etc and as a side note depending on what level of Identity I choose let them know my facebook ID and auth them all the better !
