I may have to go that route, but the roundabout aspect of that solution offends the programmer in me. Especially because I don't otherwise use Twitter (though I have an account) so I feel like I'm creating a duplicate stream of spam and foisting it on the internet. DRY! - Mike Hartman

Mike you should write something :-) - Jesse Stay

I was just thinking that. If the TweetFace app can do it then there must be an API hook for it... - Mike Hartman

Mike, yes, there are APIs for both FriendFeed and Facebook. You should buy my book to get a primer on the Facebook API :-) - Jesse Stay

Oh I know there's an API for FB, just didn't realize there was a specific hook for updating the status. But now I have proof! As much as I would love to own a book written by someone I used to play "throw stuff around the office" with, I don't think I've bought a technical book like that in 8 years. They just get outdated too quickly. - Mike Hartman

Mike, it tells you things like http://developers.facebook.com is the place to go to get any up-to-date details like that :-) - Jesse Stay

So are you telling me I should buy your book because it tells me where to find the actual information for free online? ;) - Mike Hartman

Mike, exactly - Jesse Stay

Welcome Mike! Now add your picture :-P (to my friends, Mike worked with me at Media General - cool geek to follow) - Jesse Stay

BTW Mike, be sure to check out http://beta.friendfeed.com - night and day difference from the main site. - Jesse Stay

Thanks, that was one of the first things I did. Now to track down a picture... - Mike Hartman
