NAME

Net::Identica - Perl interface to identi.ca

VERSION

This document describes Net::Identica version 2.01

SYNOPSIS

   #!/usr/bin/perl

   use Net::Identica;

   my $ident = Net::Identica->new(username=>"myuser", password=>"mypass" );

   $result = $ident->update(status => "My current Status");

   $ident->credentials("otheruser", "otherpass");

   $result = $ident->update(status => "Status for otheruser");

DESCRIPTION

identi.ca is a microblogging site similar to twitter.com, and offers up a twitter compatible API.

This module wraps Net::Twitter, defaulting to the connection information for identica instead of twitter.

All other methods in Net::Twitter work as documented, except where listed in the identica / laconica documentation at:

http://laconi.ca/trac/wiki/TwitterCompatibleAPI

AUTHOR

Chris Thompson <cpan@cthompson.com>

This replaces the original Net::Identica written by Alan Haggai Alavi and uses the identi.ca/laconi.ca twitter API instead of direct HTML parsing.
