Hi,
I've been writing a few new BC's in my off time, I know they are not
in the components list but I think they at least could have amusement
value.
First one is a Twitter BC - Doing the 'update' status is quite simple
and a small investment, I currently use twitter4j, the methods I need
are quite simple so that can always be re-written.
What would be interesting is input on how you'd like to see a twitter
component for posting messages?
The Consumer part is even more interesting from a 'client' point of
view, you'd want an update cycle right? So I was thinking of rigging
it in multiple ways,
1 - Accept a message telling me to start at index, I return the list
of updates
2- Server mode, you set a few bean properties and we call twitter to
listen in a threadpool, the responses come in as if this was a true
consumer.
What are your ideas on this?
