True, but you can't actually implement XMPP without TCP socket support.
So you either need a gateway server (similarly to Fring, Nimbuzz, etc. on other platforms, where the phone is just a "dummy" - the real stuff is done on their servers), or the native sockets, which guarantees you won't be getting in the Marketplace anytime soon. Also I'm not sure they're mature enough for this.

Ah a glob XD
This youtube video explains what Twitter is.
http://youtube.com/watch?v=ddO9idmax0o
I tweet using Fring via Jabber. works like a charm!
I stand by my original assessment. It's a way to tell people how your cat's doing in 140 characters or less...and pretend they care.

It can be used for such mundane comments like that. It can also be used for things like
- the U.S. citizen that quickly twittered via his phone that he was being arrested by Egyptian police. http://www.techcrunch.com/2008/04/16/twitter-saves-man-from-egyptian-justice/
- the Chinese that actually reported the earthquakes via Twitter, even before the news caught onto it. http://scobleizer.com/2008/05/12/quake-in-china/
- I hear about the latest betas and receive private invites just by asking other peers in my circle. (i.e. Evernote, Brightkite, Dropbox, etc.) - http://www.spiderbait.com/seo-expert/2008_01_11_archive.asp
- Helped a guy quickly get a number to a locksmith in Hawaii, although I live in NC.
Just google on "top twitter uses", something like that. You'll see alot of news and blog links of various ways that people use it.
Also, when I update my Twitter, it automatically goes out and updates my Facebook, YMsgr Status, Skype Status, and MSN Msgr status all at once.
Also, due to it's open API there are programmers who have been creating all sorts of mashups to work with Twitter. http://twiddeo.com , http://twittervision.com/maps/show_3d . An extensive list here. http://twitter.pbwiki.com/Apps
The only negative thing of late though is that it's so overwhelmingly popular that it has trouble keeping up with the amount of users. They just received another $15 Million in VC, so hopefully they'll use it to fix their scaling issues.
Of course convincing people that twitter is useful is like trying to convince my wife who only uses her mobile phone for making phone calls that my HTC S621 with it's Internet plus all it's other apps, bells and whistles is useful. She can't understand why I need to have access to the Internet 24x7 right by my side.
Thank you,
Tim

Twitter App in new WP7 Advert

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uwKjEJOAWxg
Pause at around 12 seconds....
The twitter app featured seems to have a live tile which tells you if you have new tweets or not. Am I missing something here? My Twitter app is nothing like that and is just a static tile with the twitter bird on it
Is it a different Twitter app? Or have they just put out an advert which features software not available to the public yet?

Oh the power of advertisement and digital media editing
Steve Ballmer said he is brining mobile Office with him on vacation, I assume being a CEO of the corporation he didn't mean he just reads them docs, he most probably meant he creates and edits them.
Did you try that on your device?

It must be the magic of television. If you look at most commercials for an Android phone or iPhone/iPad, it mentions that the screens are simulated.
It would be nice to have that app though...

Thank you for translating for the OP
Push notifications just hit the iPhone app in the last week or so, they announced at the same time that it was coming to Android and Windows Phone. So yeah, its either edited or they were using an early version of the software.

It will integrate with the OS like Facebook app, so it will come as an OS update.

I think you've missed this guy's point. He was making reference to a similar observation elsewhere on the new phones. Don't be so quick to judge.

this site is ripping xda content

during a google search i found this site ripping posts from xda for a mfa site.
hxxp://www.android-support.com/invalid-magic-code-0x0000003-while-trying-to-write-system-img
it was up within about 20-30 mins of me posting, so it has to be hitting your feeds fairly regularly!
time to start banning ips that access your feeds?

I think this is a cat and mouse game! If they ban an ip, they'll just find another way of doing it.......I don't think XDA is that worried about it because if they were, they would of stopped it by now!

this is kinda true in some respects, but the guy is using wordpress, with someone elses theme and so is probably just using a wp plugin to pull the android forum feed.

personally, i'd check logs for ip's that pull the android forum general feed regularly through the week at set times, maybe even try some test posts at various times to narrow the ip's down that hit at regular times.
then it's time for that ip to meet iptables
look for any agent strings - it may even be shown as 'wordpress' or as curl, or wget or a wordpress plugin name. i'm willing to guess there's a few wordpress occurances in your logs. report to google as well.

np. but... there's always the 'thanks' button
We're looking into this.
if you want to be a hardass, you may want to limit to certain agent strings for legal pulls like apps - of course, this can (fairly easily) be bypassed, but for the average webmaster dolt, it's enough.

[APP] packet sniffing

ive removed this thread, xda did not ask me to do this, i am doing it on my own, because i no longer wish to make this app public, thank you for your understanding
so this app will connect me to a secured wifi point without entering a password ?
no, lets say youre at school, and you along with everyone else at your school is connected to the schools wifi, you turn on this app, and it will tell you all of the facebook users, amazon users, youtube users ect.. for example it will say facebook: John Dow, Will Smith, Papa Smurf, and so on, with a list of users. just click one of those users, and youre now logged in to their facebook, you can change their status, account info, upload a picture, or snoop through pictures. if youre on youtube, upload a video, change favorites, anything youd do on youtube normally.. if youre on amazon, buy them a flat screen, or some pokemon cards (what ever people use amazon for anyways..) whatever.. get it?
woah !!! that is naughty
im downloading it now lol. its crazy, how does it work ?

Freedom of information ?? im just trying to justify invading peoples privacy lol
as long as it dont happen to me, **** YOU lol
Always connect to those sites using SSL. (use HTTPS in front). Most big websites such as twitter or facebook have an option in your account settings to force use HTTPS and stop storing non-SSL cookies. (but you need to delete current one)
This tool kind of made such attacks slightly more mainstream, although they've been there since ip. http://codebutler.github.com/firesheep/
This is legit. It's been posted over at Engadget.
It is probably completly illegal though

[APP] FBMetro, a Mini Facebook App

Currently I am building and shortly will be done with my Facebook Metro App for Windows 8 and the idea is to have 2 UI's.
1). Full Screen w/Most Features.
2). Half-Sized w/Basic features so you can use your favorite App's while still accessing your Facebook features, feed and etc.
Question is, what would YOU want added to either UI?
Well u should post some pictures of the program so we can see what it has and hasnt so we can give you opinions When its really upload it and i will test it for sure
After or on Tuesday, I can share the design as I am scheduled with a MS Engineer to help my App have the final touches and tested as well and hopefully first Facebook App in the Store.
Also thanks for responding.

Feature request
Please implement off line messages because the Messaging app won't let you send them
Looking forward to FBMetro! (Suggestion to call it MetroBook instead! )

Well FBMetro is really just the project name, Facebook already has an App registered as Facebook Metro.
The half-sized mode is in fact the snapped mode... I have included old-SS of which the actual App does not represent anymore as of my meeting with my Microsoft sponsor who wouldn't permit me to go any further with the design, even though I was nowhere near done lol.
Note: Job Discovery is my other App for Win8 and is actually currently a free WP7 App. In the photo you can see that my Facebook App can be used by other Developers to post information from their App using my pre-established Auth to the end-users Facebook Account. Yes, they can actually implement my App to be used by theirs.
nice, where can I get it?
It's coming, very soon!
and here is my idea....
as you may know in our country (iran) we can't access FACE.BOOK...we have to use v.p.n and other pro.xy apps...
it'll be gr8 if you add setting to your app so that we can add pro.xy and these kind of things...(especially pro.xy...)
thanks...

hy. I just want to know, when it will be available? could we download it from windows store? I'm a really big METRO UI fan, and I would be happy if I can use facebook in this way.
and of course sorry for my bed english
Cool App!!
I am actually working with someone from Microsoft to get the App Certified, I had to really redo A LOT of the UI as they have made the standards really rough.
Right when it's ready, I will immediately provide the link.
Thanks for your interest!
