Among the many announcements at Macworld today, Apple announced that iPhoto ‘09, part of the iLife ‘09 suite, now includes integration with Facebook through Facebook Connect.
Overall, it’s a nice and simple integration with a few new features that make iPhoto ‘09 much more usable in conjunction with Facebook:
- Now, you can publish photos to Facebook with custom privacy settings on each of your photo albums.
- In addition, you can sync friend tags in photos between Facebook and iPhoto.
For a full demo of iPhoto’s Facebook Connect integration, check out the video here:

promoting for the ithis monoploy that is Apple the other monoploy could do this also if Apple can do this with there iphoto program it opens the possibility that Microsoft Windows Live Photo Gallery could do similar. in a way there is already a way as WLPG has a ‘tag’ system and there is as a plug in for there Windows Live Photo Gallery and Movie Maker Applications called liveupload for Facebook [http://blogs.msdn.com/pix/pages/Plug_2D00_ins.aspx] plug in for Windows Live users (although i prefer a Facebook developed one) who want to upload to facebook and also ‘maintains’ people tags [method is not FB Connect as people tags been there since public beta of wave 3 (early as August/ September) and is done by 3rd party developer.

Actually that is not true, you CAN’T use custom privacy settings you can use only – everyone – friends and friends of friends (not even “only for me”) I think that is a crap.
