    Since moving to the new platform, we have a fully integrated Facebook Connect procedure. For those who are already registered with an account, you can go to the following URL:
    http://bolttalk.com/account/facebook

    For new members, you will have the options to connect with your Facebook account during the registration process.

    This is what the FB integration page looks like to me, tried w/ both IE and FF, there is nowhere to enter my username and password.

    If i hit the Associate w/ button I get a blank page w/ this on it:

    { "error": { "type": "OAuthException", "message": "Error validating application." } }

    You can basically do 1 click logins with your Facebook account. Plus you can do interesting things with friends that are signed in here, post things from the forum to your wall. I will get an official list of things you can do and update the 1st post.
