A comment on the question "What about adding identica support ?" in atebits:

@dmondark the anti-closed-source linux hippies part is (I assume) a reference to atebits reply at http://getsatisfaction.com/atebits/to... which ends with

"How many identica users are there? And how many of these freedom-loving non-luddite hippie anarchists even bother paying for my software :)?" – Todd Eddy, on October 19, 2009 14:17

While I didn't purchase it till tweetie 2 for the unofficial identi.ca support (yeah, I'm one of those "freedom-loving non-luddite hippie anarchists that pays for your software") and having ping.fm would be a great addition to tweetie.

Currently I just use ping.fm's mobile web app at http://www.ping.fm/iphone/. The problems with this site is it can be painfully slow to load if I'm on edge since it has to load all the UI elements each time I go to the page. Also the app itself doesn't feel as responsive as a native app could be.

Ping.fm is currently my primary way of posting messages (I just use tweetie to read and reply to people currently). My default post list includes: twitter, identi.ca, facebook, and delicious. It's very useful to post a message with a link and have it automatically get saved to delicious.

Todd Eddy marked one of bradleyjames' replies in atebits as useful. bradleyjames replied to the idea "New unread tweet notification on the icon". Todd Eddy and 6 other people think it's one of the best replies.

A comment on the question "What about adding identica support ?" in atebits:

That explains why I didn't run into the problem. I'm using the same password for both services. Although I have been diversifying my passwords so I'll make sure to not touch identi.ca and twitter till this gets patched – Todd Eddy, on October 13, 2009 18:13

I bit the bullet and bought it. I can confirm it works just fine at least for checking the timeline and posting.

When you add account there's a gear in lower right. Hit that and I made both the api root and search root https://identi.ca/api and it works! great news. Note there's a big warning about it not being officially supported but the basics seem to be working. So far only thing I've found that doesn't work is the trends when you go to search. The search function works though.

Looking at the features of v2.0 I see "Specify custom API roots on a per-account basis" With status.net having a twitter-compatible api does that mean tweetie now has (unofficial) support for status.net server?! If so this will be an instant buy for me

To elaborate: 99% of the time a twitter application will work just by changing the api root from http://twitter.com/ to http://identi.ca/api/ and in theory most things will work

Todd Eddy replied on June 01, 2009 14:04 to the problem "Pingbot@ping.fm won't come online" in Ping.fm:

The pingbot@bots.ping.fm hasn't worked for a week now. In Psi it's saying server not found. I've tried removing and readding the bot and doesn't work. I know initially I had to give them the ip of my jabber server for them to white list. did that get messed up and I need to give it to someone again?

As a fix I've gone back to the pingdotfm@gmail.com bot which works fine. Although the bots.ping.fm one would probably be more "correct" since I am using my own jabber server and not gtalk.

A comment on the question "Export full tweet archive" in Twitter:

Like sheilaellen commented. I want to keep a local backup of my tweets. Also with the removal of the "history" tab there's no way to really see your past posts easily.

Even if it's something like how pownce's export was where you request an export and then a few days later it's done. At least for a full export. Then definately some way to just export the latest entries (I assume this is in the api? haven't checked in a while) – Todd Eddy, on December 12, 2008 16:02

I understand that capacity needs to be added and such but seriously I really don't think this is the "top priority" as they keep saying. If this is a top priority and taking 3 months, what about stuff that isn't top priority? There are plenty of xmpp sollutions out there. Some are quite scalable even if the configuration can be confusing (ejabberd I'm looking at you).

Todd Eddy replied on June 12, 2008 18:04 to the problem "Unable to upgrade twhirl" in Seesmic:

a whole lot of trial and error. Go through your running processes and tried stopping processes that don't look familiar. Just search on the process name in google and you'll usually find info to know if it's an important system file or from some other application. If you do stop a critical process, restarting the computer will fix it.

FWIW I don't get these errors anymore when upgrading, so it got fixed somewhere (either in a logitech update or air update)
