-Twitter Bridge
---------------
-
-* OAuth
-
-As of 0.8.1, OAuth is used to to access protected resources on Twitter
-instead of HTTP Basic Auth.  To use Twitter bridging you will need
-to register your instance of StatusNet as an application on Twitter
-(http://twitter.com/apps), and update the following variables in your
-config.php with the consumer key and secret Twitter generates for you:
-
-      $config['twitter']['consumer_key']    = 'YOURKEY';
-      $config['twitter']['consumer_secret'] = 'YOURSECRET';
-
-When registering your application with Twitter set the type to "Browser"
-and your Callback URL to:
-
-      http://example.org/mublog/twitter/authorization
-
-The default access type should be, "Read & Write".
-
-* Importing statuses from Twitter
-
-To allow your users to import their friends' Twitter statuses, you will
-need to enable the bidirectional Twitter bridge in config.php:
-
-      $config['twitterbridge']['enabled'] = true;
-
-and run the TwitterStatusFetcher daemon (scripts/twitterstatusfetcher.php).
-Additionally, you will want to set the integration source variable,
-which will keep notices posted to Twitter via StatusNet from looping
-back.  The integration source should be set to the name of your
-application, exactly as you specified it on the settings page for your
-StatusNet application on Twitter, e.g.:
-
-      $config['integration']['source'] = 'YourApp';
-
-* Twitter Friends Syncing
-
-Users may set a flag in their settings ("Subscribe to my Twitter friends
-here" under the Twitter tab) to have StatusNet attempt to locate and
-subscribe to "friends" (people they "follow") on Twitter who also have
-accounts on your StatusNet system, and who have previously set up a link
-for automatically posting notices to Twitter.
-
-As of 0.8.0, this is no longer accomplished via a cron job. Instead you
-must run the SyncTwitterFriends daemon (scripts/synctwitterfreinds.php).
-
-Built-in Facebook Application
------------------------------
-
-StatusNet's Facebook application allows your users to automatically
-update their Facebook statuses with their latest notices, invite
-their friends to use the app (and thus your site), view their notice
-timelines, and post notices -- all from within Facebook. The application
-is built into StatusNet and runs on your host.  For automatic Facebook
-status updating to work you will need to enable queuing and run the
-facebookqueuehandler.php daemon (see the "Queues and daemons" section
-above).
-
-Quick setup instructions*:
-
-Install the Facebook Developer application on Facebook:
-
-    http://www.facebook.com/developers/
-
-Use it to create a new application and generate an API key and secret.
-Uncomment the Facebook app section of your config.php and copy in the
-key and secret, e.g.:
-
-    # Config section for the built-in Facebook application
-    $config['facebook']['apikey'] = 'APIKEY';
-    $config['facebook']['secret'] = 'SECRET';
-
-In Facebook's application editor, specify the following URLs for your app:
-
-- Canvas Callback URL: http://example.net/mublog/facebook/
-- Post-Remove Callback URL: http://example.net/mublog/facebook/remove
-- Post-Add Redirect URL: http://apps.facebook.com/yourapp/
-- Canvas Page URL: http://apps.facebook.com/yourapp/
-
-(Replace 'example.net' with your host's URL, 'mublog' with the path
-to your StatusNet installation, and 'yourapp' with the name of the
-Facebook application you created.)
-
-Additionally, Choose "Web" for Application type in the Advanced tab.
-In the "Canvas setting" section, choose the "FBML" for Render Method,
-"Smart Size" for IFrame size, and "Full width (760px)" for Canvas Width.
-Everything else can be left with default values.
