Re: [orca-list] Gnome facebook integration modules and live Gnome and Orca

["B. Henry" <burt1iband gmail com>]

Facebook broke or completely got rid of the api that allowed stand alone desktop aps to work with most 
feature/functions available on the facebook 
website.
They continue to support mobile aps, but don't want people bypassing the website with theire computers, i.e. 
bypassing adds and such.
This occured in the summer, the beginning of July if I remember correctly. Some limited interaction is still 
possible in theory I think, and on Windows 
AIM could still allow likes and commenting on posts in your feed and let you update your status. 
I used FBCMD to do almost everything I did on FB until they broke or took down the api in question, and it 
and at least in theory other aps could do 
almost anything I know of that could be done on FB. Now chat, (not with standard xmpp like before), is the 
only interaction widely availableon all 
platforms, but a limited set of features/interactions are still possible. 
Note how even official FB email alerts often do not include short messages/small content forcing the 
recipiant to go to the website to see what is 
refferenced in the email.
