" microblogging " - these are the extremely short text messages as they appear on Twitter . 140 characters. Enough for an SMS, enough for a haiku . Much less than one e-mail, unbound as an instant messenging message. Some speak of why even own a new media format .
Twitter is the most popular platform. But now the Laconica software is developed that is made available as open source. identi.ca is a provider of micro blogging on open source basis. What heise.de recently pointed . Nice: identi.ca provides the same for clarity by the blogged Text is available under a creative commons license.
stuff is on identi.ca under construction. Hence, in addition to an SMS service and cross-posting to other services, including Twitter become possible. - At present it is not the case. Since it is very cumbersome, however, to leave an existing network and rebuild a new supplier, cross-posting is the best way: use both!
there are now many ways in KDE Twitter feed. And many KDE developers make use of it. - Here's a script that is based on KDialog, the same time send a message in two networks: In this case, the one to mention - on the other to the open source alternative identi.ca. !
----
# / bin / bash
message = `kdialog - inputbox
` curl-u Twitter_USERNAME: PASSWORD-s-F status = "$ message" 'What are you doing right now? " http://twitter.com/statuses/update.xml http://twitter.com/account/end_session
curl-u Identi.ca_USERNAME: PASSWORD-s-F status = "$ message" http://identi.ca / api / status / update.xml http://identi.ca/account/end_session
----
made executable example, it may be associated with a button in the kicker bar.
password and user name in this case are not encrypted in the script to replace. Except http://identi.ca, any other platform used by the current Laconica uses software ... And probably any other microblogging platform that has a Twitter-like API.
The script is based on kdialog and curl. The scripts are
Ideengebeden Twitter kdialog script and Klareta . All scripts are under the GPL .
Have fun to all potential users can use it except me!
