FlashForward Offers a Glimpse into Your Future Through Facebook

ABC has come up with a clever way to use Facebook Connect to advertise its new television series, FlashForward. The new sci-fi drama takes photos and your friends’ names from your Facebook profile and turns this information into a mini movie intro — about your own future, the theme of the show.

The show centers around an apparently global event where everyone in the world blacked out for 2 minutes and 17 seconds, during which time each person caught a glimpse of his or her life 6 months into the future.
