Does anyone know of any modules that use external networking APIs like Facebook etc etc?

Hi,

Try this free module.

We (team members) are Humans offering their knowledge, their work and their spare time FOR FREE to benefit the community. It would be so particularly appreciated that your messages begin with "Hello" and end with "Thank you" or any other form of politeness. Ask yourself what your reaction would be, if you were approached by me (a total stranger) on the street to ask you something without saying "Hello" nor "Thank you"? After several years of services dedicated to the community, I begin to be tired to read requests without any form of politeness.

What kind if functionality were you thinking of for Facebook? I was playing around with the API and was wondering if I should do some sort of integration with my UserProfile module - anything specific you were looking for?

Nothing specific as yet. I don't know the Facebook API in great detail, but I see some advantages to the current user having something in DNN like this:

  • Control their own Facebook account from DNN
  • Search Facebook and return data to DNN
  • Add Facebook contacts within DNN

It would be better if this was a separate module not tied to UserProfile, but some kind of networking module that could also use other networking APIs.

Hmm - I was considering building in a "Facebook Contact Picker" into the Smart-Thinker modules - eg. you want to create an Event/Group or Tell a Friend and you have a new option - "My Facebook Contacts" and you can bring them into DNN (it would create an account on their behalf - but I am not sure you can get the email from FB - only been playing with the basic webservice...
