3. Will a Facebook beta be available soon? I haven't been able to get the Facebook Comments code to work, so having Facebook posts and comments migrate to my blog could be a partial solution (although I might still have issues if Google Analytics is unable to track the views)

+Jeff Sullivan, the current plugin is bedding in at the moment and apart from the API quota issues which can now be worked around seems to be working quite well.

I have some work to do on +Fotostat, but will likely have a beta ready for Facebook sometime within the next couple of weeks. I'll be sure to let you know when I have something you can mess around with. For both Google+ and Facebook I will also be providing template examples in the FAQ forums which will attach their representative comment boxes at the bottom (what you said you were having troubles with).
