Two similar services launching at the same time... An interesting comparison article, Facebook Connect vs Google Friend Connect: Fight!, at Mashable nicely summerises the key points. As they point out in the article, the two services are aimed at different users. Facebook Connect seems too much like a one way street, whereas Google Connect supports OpenID. There are other services that have been around for a while offering similar functionality, for example Disqus.
