Facebook in ¡Mojito!
Thanks to those nice people at Novell, Mojito (everyone's favourite social aggregator, as used in Moblin) now has Facebook support. We now support Facebook, Flickr, Last.fm, MySpace and Twitter — any requests for the next service?

you three are the only identi.ca users, probably ;-)
seriously: the only ways to use identi.ca is to use the half-implemented twitter compatibility API or download laconi.ca and read PHP code.
until identi.ca gets a proper API I don't see it being very useful -- obviously leaving on the side any consideration about how a service based on PHP and MySQL is going to scale as soon as it gets more users (the answer is: it doesn't).

Identi.ca support would be wonderful.
Second to that perhaps some kind of digg integration e.g. it would be nice to see my recommended news feed, diggs by friends and popular stories show up in the interface somehow as well as a means to add a given webpage to digg easily.
The facebook support, at least when I played with it via goblin last week was a bit under developed, it sets the status but doesn't seem to update you on your friends activities.

How about Qaiku, as that was already worked on by Piotras?

Actually generic support for any StatusNet-based service (including Identi.ca) would make more sense.
So.. +1 for StatusNet support.

As a project leader of a developement app for android to work with StatusNet, I dont see what are your question with the API, Emmanuele.
Would you like to share your ideas/questions?
And of course since the OMB is open, feel free to join and contribute here you think it needs to get better :)

A client running on stock GNOME would be nice :)

@Emmanuele There will be better api documentation and functionality in the upcoming 0.9 release of the StatusNet software.

I'm interested to see step by step guide on how to enable flickr, myspace, facebook services on mojito. Does anybody know such link? Thanks
Posted by Ross at Fri Oct 30 13:28:07 2009:
Hylman: run ./configure --help from a source tarball of Mojito and you'll see where you need to provide the required API keys for the services to work.
Posted by Hylman at Fri Oct 30 14:16:11 2009:
How can we get API key from twitter and myspace? I've got API key from Last.fm and flickr already. Why does twitter now require API key?

Posted by Ross at Fri Oct 30 15:10:24 2009:
If you are running the latest Mojito then you don't really need an API key for twitter because it isn't used, so just pass any random string. For MySpace, see developer.myspace.com.

Thanks for your help Ross. How about facebook integration? Where can I find the patch for facebook? The current mojito does not include facebook in the service list.
Posted by Ross at Sat Oct 31 06:34:27 2009:
Facebook has been temporarily removed for legal reasons and will be back shortly. You can grab the patches from the moblin bugzilla (search for a closed bug with facebook in the summary) or from Novell's patches.
Posted by Hylman at Sat Oct 31 10:00:26 2009:
Hi Ross. Thanks for helping me so far. I downloaded mojito 0.19.2 as the patch was said to be written for this version. I applied the patch, configure with --enable-facebook-key=blalbalbalba:etcetcetc, make and sudo make install. When I ran bisho, and clicked "continue" button in facebook area of the web services, it opened up facebook page, but said the application is still under development. It said something about Canvas callback URL, etc. What should I do with this? Do you have like step by step guide to help me setting up this facebook? Sorry for the trouble, but I'm really newbie in programming and linux. I didn't even know what API is until I tried to play around with mojito. Thanks before
Posted by Ross at Sat Oct 31 12:45:17 2009:
In that case the Facebook application settings tied to your API key are incorrect. I can't recall the settings required to make it work, but the first thing to do is to turn on desktop mode (instead of webapp mode). I really can't remember how this works, so you'll have to experiment.

Still no luck with facebook support on mojito... I hope moblin will release this FB support officially in the near future
Posted by Matt at Thu Nov 12 23:23:35 2009:
I know this isn't necessarily a support forum, but moblin/mojito seems to be lacking one as of yet. Is there a reason I keep getting messages from bisho saying "Cannot find keys for service <service>" and "** Message: Cannot find keys for <service>" after I build mojito with --enable-<service>-key="######:######"
I'm certain that it is a result of some step I am missing, but I'm not sure which. I'm more of a user than a developer.
