integration

I finally integrated the blog log-in system using the Twitter oAuth API all thanks to Twit Connect by Shannon Whitley, I did have to modify the plug-in because my web site host doesn’t like having url in “http get” parameters, after fixing that problem, I then asked @knightl3y to post a comment, to make the sure the script was working properly.

I no longer allow the general public to post comments on my blog, from now you’re required to have a twitter account in order to post a comment on my blog.

The other thing is that I was going to use Facebook Connect as well, but unfortunately it’s not free like it is with Twitter oAuth. Facebook Connect cost $350 or for non-profit about $175 as far as I remember, which I think is just ridiculous to be honest the price is so high that it’s not worth thinking about.  If Facebook Connect becomes free to use, I will implement it but not at any cost because it’s simply just not worth it at all.
