[wishlist] Noserub API

[Stas Sușcov]

http://noserub.com/ is a social services crawler. It is also a web service itself.
Currently noserub supports almost every web application related to social communication, and It's open source.
It's a pity, gwibber has no support for it's api.

A good example of noserub's possibilities is http://identoo.com/

API documentation can be found at:

It's not really clear to me what this service actually does. Is it a social aggregation platform like FriendFeed? The API documentation is very unenlightening. Could you provide more details?

[Stas Sușcov (sushkov)]

Hi,
yes.

Noserub is kind of FriendFeed, except the implementation. Noserub wass
designed to be a distributed social network with friend feed features.
It also allows you not only to fetch data from external APIs but also
update data through external APIs which allow this to be done.

Why I asked for gwibber to integrate support for it:
* because it is an open source project (for example our lug will start
using it)
* so far it has no clients able to use it's api
* using noserub (and maybe gwibber) will be easy to update a noserub
account which will later update all my acounts.

Should I ask for a better API documentation from the author?

Sorry, it seems I missed the "wishlist" keyword.
