Judgment on July 1, 2008:

As the community predicted, this did not occur in the allotted timeframe. Judged at S$0. -- The Industry Standard

Original Prediction:

Facebook recently cut off access rights for Google's recently-announce Friend Connect service to user profile data on Facebook pages, citing violations of Facebook's privacy policy.

But now Martyn Williams over at Infoworld has it that Mark Zuckerberg and Facebook want to find a way to make it work after all.

This prediction is that Facebook and Google will find a way to play nice and Friend Connect will be reallowed access to Facebook data by the end of June. Note: in order to be judged favorably, at least some Facebook data must be made available to Friend Connect, if not all.
