This will largely be possible with CCS

The Concept:
IPB threads as comment system for external websites.
Website's side: IPB topics could be automatically created and plugged below the Blog/CMS' articles; then on the forum's side, the first message of the thread could be the article's text.
The idea is similar to some popular comment systems such as: IntenseDebate, Disqus, JS-Kit, Facebook Comments Box, etc.
Those systems then enhanced their features with "Comment Threading" coming together as a forum, or at the least the forum's concept.
So why don't converge the forum's purpose to comment system for websites?

What do you guys think about it? :)

My 2 cents:

• Tags! (Tags for forums, topics, posts, members, groups, apps, etc.).
• Activity Stream! (Activity stream from the members I added as friends on my profile).
• To publish my personal IPB activities stream on my Facebook's profile! (optional, of course).
• RSS for Topics! (RSS for threads; not just for forums).

4) Is something that was discussed, but we decided to keep first release simple functionality wise, while we explore options in future releases.

Facebook Connect & IP.Board 3.x is a must! ;)

Facebook Connect could be fantastic both as login-method and to publish on Facebook the forum activity-updates.

Since IP.Board 3.0 introduces a new and innovative framework, API, etc... do you think will be possible to implement the IP.Board as a OpenSocial container?

Thank You
