Hi Folks,

I did some hacking today and created an ECF provider for Twitter.
Attached you can find the project set files for extssh or anonymous
access to OSU Open Source Lab.

I'll be eventually adding to it, moving it over to dev.eclipse.org and
adding it to ECF distribution (after some more features, testing, clean
up, documentation, etc).

Scott

Twitter is just one of the web 2.0 sites that have restful API.
Others, include google services, flickr, youtube and many many others.
Maybe framework like ecf could provide a more generalized API for such
services then binding up to specific one.

Eugene

Yes, I think ECF can/does provide more generalized APIs...that support
restful transports as well as others. For server-to-server
communication (i.e. runtime project), this can be/will be particularly
valuable, I believe.

FWIW, it was/is extremely easy to create an ECF provider (in this case
for the presence/im APIs) using the twitter aps. For convenience/speed
of implementing the json serialization I used the 'twitter4j' API.
Given this, it only took about 6 hours to implement the provider.

IMHO there are some limitations to the polling that is done in twitter's
API (WRT server scaling), but that's their (twitter's) problem rather
than ours.
