The Facebook API already allows to develop applications on the Facebook platform.
As demonstrated by a some apps it is possible to create an automatic signup/login to an external vBulletin installation. So the Facebook user doesn't need to create a seperate login.
I would give it a few more months to see the first fully integrated vBulleting forums in Facebook.
A full integration would include things like:
- Facebook look and feel
- Real Facebook app (not only link to external site)
- Support of Facebook features (Profile, Notifications, Mini Feed, etc etc)
