We've had an incredible week watching the Web become more social and authentic as sites are get started with Facebook Connect. Just today CNET launched their implementation of Facebook Connect, enabling users to comment with their real identity on all of CNET's properties. And there are more exciting things in store for commenters and bloggers alike in the days to come.

Now, across dozens of sites developers have implemented ways for users to:

• Share class notes and ratings of professors on Koofers
• Share eco-friendly tips with like-minded people on Huddler
• Watch and comment on videos on Vimeo
• Share information for events planned at sites like Eventbrite and Acteva
  
• Access sheet music at Cantorion
  
• Take fun quizzes with Brainfall
  
• Easily join alumni networks for schools like Oregon State University (by iModules)

Check out the full list of live sites on our Developer Wiki, and add yours as you go live.

The word is spreading. Earlier this week more than 250 developers attended the Paris Facebook Developer Garage at Le Web featuring content around Facebook Connect, including exciting developments from Netvibes. And, last night we saw more than 100 people attend the Bay Area Facebook Meetup (this event is not managed by Facebook) to learn more about Facebook Connect. During one presentation GovIt shared insights about their implementation, including that 58% of their new users sign up through Facebook Connect. Since implementing Connect, GovIt has seen overall engagement and registration rates double, according to GovIt's Taylor Norrish.

Things are abuzz in the halls of Facebook as we watch you make it easier for the 130 million Facebook users to share and connect with content on your sites. We're already hard at work on the next set of features, so stay tuned!
