@waxpancake This is not the first time I've heard of this problem with .io ... @kenichi_pdx just went through this too!

@IKEA_Portland I don't see a price tag, but I think it would make a great second bed for my AirBnB guests!

@cindyli I was hoping to put some cat stickers in the StickerMule marketplace! And also maybe put him on oauth.net!

@tayhatmaker lol I think my pebble is going to run out of batteries on stage

@tayhatmaker yay! we're gonna talk about watches and stuff!

@c4milo I turned it in to a blog post! http://aaronparecki.com/articles/2015/01/15/1/so-you-implemented-an-oauth2-api

For a while I was doing my own PESOS for my tweets so that I could still reply to people from the Twitter app and get those back on my site as posts. I quickly ran into a problem where I was sometimes re-importing a tweet that I had originally POSSE'd and would end up with two identical posts on my site. I wouldn't even know where to begin to try to do that with Facebook. If bridgy solves this well, I would probably use it, because I gave up running that code myself because of all the edge cases I encountered.

I am planning on doing PESOS of my Instagram, Twitter and Flickr likes, since I still often find myself in a situation where I'm reading something on one of those silos and it's quicker to just tap their button. I would happily use a Bridgy version of that as well.

You shouldn't be afraid of writing a micropub client for this, since it's basically a version of OAuth 2.0 which you've already dealt with on Instagram and Facebook. Also most people so far have implemented non-expiring access tokens on their sites. If you wanted to make this explicit, you could add a scope to the authorization request that would indicate such.

@helloerica When is your first episode coming out!

@jwisser piped in to IRC channels no less

@pdxgene if I did, I couldn't tell you

@aaronjorbin oh god. I'm flattered, but if I do this, there is gonna be no connection and full plausible deniability.

@jaffathecake I was also trying to focus on the positive :-)

@RoisinTheMirror @caseorganic @amy_may Mine woke up one day after about 5 years and just said "hey... light!"

@werd.io I'm terrible at naming things.

@haxor Indeed! Great writeup too, it was a good read.

@brennannovak nope, I just happen to have a star trek shirt and communicator badge the cast was envious of!

@zenobase oh crap! Sorry, I'll fix that! At least I made it save progress with a cookie!

@Johannes_Ernst Yeah it drives me nuts too. I still have a server running I've been trying to decommission for 3 years.

@Johannes_Ernst see this is why I'm still running my own servers :-(

@Johannes_Ernst oh darn, I started moving everything over to nginx a while ago, not keen on switching back to Apache.
