Title: Social networks Post by: HostFat on June 06, 2010, 11:13:24 PM Can the admin open something like an official group/page on social networks like facebook? ( example: http://www.kickasstorrents.com , look at the facebook tab at the right )
It will be useful also a twitter account. ( and a twitter widget of course! ) I know that many of you probably don't like social networks, but this isn't the point. I think that everything that can be useful to connect this project with people as many as possible ... is a GOOD idea :) Title: Re: Social networks Post by: sirius on June 14, 2010, 10:41:22 AM Created a page on Facebook, welcome to join and invite friends!
Title: Re: Social networks Post by: HostFat on June 14, 2010, 11:43:44 AM 1) You can also add this to the homepage:
Code: <iframe src="http://www.facebook.com/plugins/likebox.php?id=362816109006&width=292&connections=10&stream=false&header=false&height=255" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" style="border:none; overflow:hidden; width:292px; height:255px;" allowTransparency="true"></iframe> 2) Or this alternative: Code: <fb:like-box profile_id="362816109006" width="292" connections="10" stream="false" header="false"></fb:like-box> Code: <div id="fb-root"></div> Everything come from here: http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like-box EDIT: Now it has the right id :P Title: Re: Social networks Post by: HostFat on June 14, 2010, 11:56:17 AM And this is about Twitter:
Search widget: ( I suggest this one ) Quote <script src="http://widgets.twimg.com/j/2/widget.js"></script> <script> new TWTR.Widget({ version: 2, type: 'search', search: 'bitcoin', interval: 6000, title: 'Say no to central banking – use Bitcoin, the revolutionary P2P currency!', subject: 'Bitcoin', width: 250, height: 300, theme: { shell: { background: '#8ec1da', color: '#ffffff' }, tweets: { background: '#ffffff', color: '#444444', links: '#1985b5' } }, features: { scrollbar: false, loop: true, live: true, hashtags: true, timestamp: true, avatars: true, toptweets: true, behavior: 'default' } }).render().start(); </script> Or profile widget: Quote <script src="http://widgets.twimg.com/j/2/widget.js"></script> <script> new TWTR.Widget({ version: 2, type: 'profile', rpp: 4, interval: 6000, width: 250, height: 300, theme: { shell: { background: '#333333', color: '#ffffff' }, tweets: { background: '#000000', color: '#ffffff', links: '#4aed05' } }, features: { scrollbar: false, loop: false, live: false, hashtags: true, timestamp: true, avatars: false, behavior: 'all' } }).render().setUser('profile_name').start(); </script> Everything come from here: http://twitter.com/goodies/widgets Title: Re: Social networks Post by: HostFat on June 14, 2010, 09:50:30 PM does "http://twitter.com/bitcoinORG" come from official dev/admin ?
EDIT: it seems NOT ... Title: Re: Social networks Post by: D҉ataWraith on June 15, 2010, 03:34:51 PM does "http://twitter.com/bitcoinORG" come from official dev/admin ? Looks like someone is promoting Bitcoin independently, mostly in German. Doing a fair job, too. There's also http://twitter.com/bitcoin (http://twitter.com/bitcoin) (http://bitcoin.com (http://bitcoin.com)), which is apparently entirely unrelated to this project. I wonder whether "BitCoin Ltd." could cause trouble with the name Bitcoin later on, because they registered a business under that name... Title: Re: Social networks Post by: llama on July 05, 2010, 10:09:55 PM I wonder whether "BitCoin Ltd." could cause trouble with the name Bitcoin later on, because they registered a business under that name... Hahaha, who would they sue?!? Title: Re: Social networks Post by: D҉ataWraith on July 06, 2010, 09:30:29 AM Hahaha, who would they sue?!? Satoshi? Sourceforge? Sounds kinda ridiculous, I know, but I don't have much faith in the legal system anymore, so I think it _could_ happen... I was just thinking of the trouble Mozilla had with 'Firebird'. Or take Google: They can't call Gmail Gmail in Germany, because a single, tiny company registered the name. Granted, that's a little different from an Open Source project, but still... Title: Re: Social networks Post by: The Madhatter on July 06, 2010, 09:40:34 AM Look at what happened when Kaza was sued to find your answer.
Title: Re: Social networks Post by: Timo Y on July 06, 2010, 11:01:38 AM Look at what happened when Kaza was sued to find your answer. This is why having several independent clients that talk Bitcoin would be a good idea. Kazaa has been sued because it was easy to sue. Closed source, distributed by a single company on a single website in a single jurisdiction. On the other hand, has a bittorrent client developer ever been sucessfully sued?
