Add support for Laconica / identi.ca

Please consider adding support for Laconica and identi.ca. identi.ca, at http://identi.ca/, is an Free software/Open Source "Twitter clone" with a Twitter compatible API. That means that all you have to do is to change the URL of the Twitter API to the identi.ca API URL, and all your existing code for Twitter will work with identi.ca! You can read more about that here: http://laconi.ca/trac/wiki/TwitterCom... If you'd set up an account yourself on identi.ca too, that would be awesome! You can find a list of clients and services that works with identi.ca (and some of which can post to Twitter and identi.ca simultaneously) at http://laconi.ca/trac/wiki/Apps. You will of course be added to this list if you decide to support identi.ca.

Laconica, at http://laconi.ca/, is the code that identi.ca runs, and anyone can install it on their own server, like Leo Laporte's very popular podcasting network TWiT has done with http://army.twit.tv/. The only thing you need to do to add support for any installation of Laconica, instead of just identi.ca, is to let the user herself tell you the URL of the API. For an example just look at how http://twitterfeed.com does it.
