Re: [orca-list] Got Gwibber to work ... sort of



Doesn't look like it. For updating your status and for commenting, liking and that sort of thing yes but for chat, use Empathy or my own personal favorite, Pidgin. Pidgin works very well with Facebook except that, from time to time, on Precise, a notification about somebody going off line or coming online will make Orca freeze up. What Pidgin will not do, however is read your facebook status or feed.

Hi, all,

Just wanted to announce that I've had some success with Gwibber for
reading my Twitter timeline and my Facebook as well.  Setting it up
was a bit painful since some of the fields weren't labeled quite right
but, once it's working, it's not too bad to read.  Still can't do
anything fancy with it yet but, it's coming along.  I'm just happy to
be able to read both of them from one place.  Next milestone for me is
actually posting on one of these two services through it.  That's
proving a bit of a challenge.  I'm still using Smuxi for tweeting and
the mobile interface to facebook for my wall and posting comments on
other people's walls.  I'm sure Gwibber is pretty scriptable right now
though.  It has tons of potential.  Kudos to all who made that
possible.
