twhirl 0.8.6 - adding laconi.ca support, fixing bugs
Last Friday, we released a preview version of twhirl that supports generic laconi.ca installation. If you haven’t heard of laconi.ca yet, it’s an open source microblogging server software, and it powers the identi.ca microblogging site that twhirl already supported before. Also, this version of twhirl catches up with some changes in the Twitter API, so that you can now again (un)follow people in twhirl, or make tweets your favorites. And finally, if you use Dustin Salling’s IdentiSpy service, you can now see tracked messages from identi.ca in twhirl!
twhirl preview for laconi.ca sites
Since twhirl added support for identi.ca some time ago, we have seen growing demand to have generic support for any laconi.ca based microblogging site out there. Thanks to the Twitter-compatible API it provides, we are happy to announce a preview version for twhirl today that you can point to any laconi.ca installation. And we now also support Dustin Sallings IdentiSpy tracking service!
