Hi, Yariv, is twoorl.com dead?

How about using xmpp and using XEP-0107: User Mood for twoorls? It will make it automatically distirbuted :)

Hi, Hariv,

I setup twoorl on freeBSD 7.2 and I cannot avoid the following error. Please help me!
Looks like the session_key problem. But I cannot find session_key in twoorl.sql.

Does Twoorl support friend updates and IM updates? These are the main scaling bottlenecks in the Twitter architecture, based on the developer blog.

Well, I just spent the last few hours analysing the possibility of just such a project in Erlang. Like Nick above you beat me to it, well done! Have you actually considered setting it up? My idea was to recreate the twitter API 1:1 and import their stuff from the public timeline. Maybe the client developers would be willing to switch considering twitters problems and the fact that the replacement is open source…

How would you realistically go about testing this as the base for a twitter-like service? Who hosts Erlang? How would you get started? I think it has great potential for a white label solution if you can make it easy for people to get started and seek out support.

Cheers
