<\/a><\/p>\nTwitter, is scrapping Basic Auth! Which means no more simple curl calls, its on to OAuth.<\/p>\n
Check out http:\/\/dev.twitter.com\/pages\/basic_to_oauth<\/a> for how to update your Apps\/Usage, and http:\/\/countdowntooauth.com\/<\/a> for a handy countdown.<\/p>\n In other twitter news, I use Notifo<\/a> to forward my twitter replies to my iPhone, which uses Push.ly<\/a> to grab the stream. Twitter has currently borked @Replies both in apps and on the website, however Notifo announced they have updated their website with a new design, (hurrah), and a desktop client<\/a> (further hurrah). Thats enough twitter! I was linked in a random IRC channel to http:\/\/jsfiddle.net\/<\/a>, which is a sort of real time code and run\/test interface for several different javascript libs, including MooTools, and jQuery. Its currently in Alpha and under “heavy development”, so far I have found it quite useful, since it saves a lot of time in prototyping something. Looking forward to when they add user accounts, will be easier to track my own fiddles, heres the 5th version of me fiddling with jQuery UI tabs<\/a> yes it has basic version control!<\/p>\n Facebook next, came across this today: http:\/\/developers.facebook.com\/roadmap<\/a> pretty much nails the coffin shut on FBML and suggests that we will all be using iFrames instead….<\/p>\n Not sure if this is a good thing or a bad thing, since iFrames are not always the most secure of things, but will make sending more upto date stuff to a Facebook page easier. And no longer stuck with Facebook caching, which in itself is a useful thing….<\/p>\n Also they are moving to a larger oauth setting with the use of oauth version 2! And scrapping their Rest API.<\/p>\n So there is a lot of change going on within two of the larger things I have been involved with (in terms of building things for clients), so in this vein when is the Last.FM api moving to oAuth too, tho it does use a token based Auth now?!<\/p>\n I’m gonna need to do a lot of recoding\/refactoring for things that use FBML and basic Auth….<\/p>\n Is oAuth the future for all API’s? What do you think?<\/p>\n Edit:<\/p>\n O and I am going to invest in one of these! <\/p>\n Some random useful things: Twitter, is scrapping Basic Auth!
