Social Plugins
Stand-alone tools which can be embedded on Websites Promote socially relevant information about the site to the users Do not require the user to be logged in to Facebook. Do not communicate any user information to the website. Extremely simple to implement and only require:
A single line of code placed on a static page Said code to be integrated into the template in case of a dynamic page
If the primary content of your page is a socially relevant object like a Movie, Book, Celebrity, etc an optional piece of code may be used to make the your page appear in the appropriate section under the users Likes and Interests on his prole e.g. Liking an IMDB movie page automatically places the movie under the Movies section of the users prole Objects which can be semantically tagged:
Activity, Sport, Bar, Company, Cafe, Hotel, Restaurant, Cause, Sports League, Sports Team, Band, Government, Non Prot, School, University, Actor, Athlete, Author, Director, Musician, Politician, Public Figure, City, Country, Landmark, State, Album, Book, Drink, Food, Game, Product, Song, Movie,TV Show, Blog,Website, Article
Activity Feed
Box displaying content from a website which has been recently liked or shared. Will display likes or shares by friends if the user is signed in. Displays content only from the same domain e.g. an activity box on foo.com will not display content from bar.foo.com
Recommendations
Similar to the Activity Feed box Stories appearing in the box are magically recommended to the user and are tailored to the users prole data and existing likes
Commenting
Allows people to post comments to a web page with the option of crossposting the comment to their Proles. Requires the user to have existing Application on Facebook beforehand A little harder to implement on static pages, compared to other plugins. Can more easily implemented via readymade plugins for Wordpress, Drupal, etc.
Live Stream
Similar to the Comments Box, Messages posted are published real time, Posting the message as a status update is not optional Message can be optionally visible to everyone posting in the box, even non friends Works best with Live Streaming videos, Webinars and Online Games
Groups
Groups are private or public communities created by individuals, to have a discussions and interactions around common interests. Groups allow for granularity on who can join. Groups can be public, invite only, or secret. Groups have Administrators who can appoint Ofcers for maintaining the Group Members can post Photos,Videos and Links to a Group, or participate in the Discussion Forum with no extensibility in terms of adding Third Party Applications.
Pages
Pages are special proles, used by brands, organizations, celebrities, etc to allow interaction with ordinary users without requiring a two-way Friendship A Page may be liked by a user, who becomes a Fan of the page. Fans can freely interact with the Page through Wall, Photo,Video postings, Comments and Likes on Posts Can be enhanced using third party Applications

Canvas Application
Key features of a Canvas Application are the main Canvas Area where all the action takes place The application may have any number of tabs which can complement each other, e.g. A tab with a game, another tab for redeeming in-game points, and a third one which servers as a user leaderboard. In addition to internal tabs, you may dene a Prole Tab for the application which users can optionally add to their proles or Pages. Since the application is exclusive to Facebook, it comes with a Application Page which resides on the site. The Application Page behaves like an ordinary Facebook Page

enabled website which may use Facebooks Authentication in lieu of its own
A Key aspect of a Connect Application is the design freedom available, since the application is an independent website. The Connect Application is supplemented by an Additional Canvas application which one may choose to use to offer a more complete experience. The additional Canvas application can prove to be useful for engagement when the user is on Facebook.com and does not visit the website URI regularly.
Login Button
The login button is a Social Plugin available exclusively to Connect Websites which enables a Login Widget to be placed at any spot in the Website Login button can also show faces of the users friends who have already signed up for the Website
Facepile
Unlike the Login button, the Facepile only displays details of the users friends who have signed up for a Connect Website
API stands for Application Programming Interface Loosely, an API is a set of web based services provided by a popular website which enables third party applications to read and write information in a raw form and deliver an experience which, in some way, complements the original website. Examples
TweetDeck delivers a complete Twitter experience outside of the main website by using an API Pictures from your Flickr account can be displayed on your blog with the aid of a plugin or embed code XML JSON SOAP/WSDL/REST
