TwitterBomb 1.15
Community Release by Chronolabs co-op

Twitter Bomb allows you to place segments of a tweet into a database, and aggregate via services like twitterfeed.com tweets based on a sentence formed from a matrix of basis of sentences. You will be able to run a campaign on twitter and have your sentences randomly made from the segments of sentences known in this applicaion as the 'base' of the phrase.

Since this version there is also now two type of campaigns you can run, either a phrase bombing, or a scheduled tweet. You can import a list from a text file or log file, where each line is periodically tweeted on twitter as per your schedule. Including tabled filters for easy use and maintence as well as harvesting plugins that allow you to develop with TwitterBomb to retireve information from other sources like API, databases, text files, SOAP ports or many other places like modules on your website.

TwitterBomb 1.15 is the new Stable Release, we don't expect to be doing anymore releases of this application which is XOOPS 2.4 compatible as it is full of features and has all the nessecary details for expansion with plugins but after this we will be migrating to the module class wrapper making it only 2.5 compatible.

There is a mirade of options with this application. You can specify URLS to pass someone too included in the URL can be the phrase in a URL Encoded string so you can direct people to search engines and topics to do with the sentence.

#Gaysex on austnet - website made with XOOPS 2.5

Sat, 16 Jul 2011 02:47:32 +2000

#Gaysex on AustNet

Austnet is the Australian Internet Relay Chat (IRC) main hub for the asia pacific with servers throughout the asia pacific including sydney, perth, singapour, hongkong and many other places.

#gaysex is one of the channels on there and even though at the moment it isn't overly active, I have been asked to make a breif site that can promote the channel through the web and hopefully attract some more users.

The site was made with the following XOOPS applications:

Multisite
XCenter
TwitterBomb
IRC
SmartFAQ
Profile
MyAlbum-p
Spiders
Xortify
Xforum
Tags
Lawsuit

The theme was a free theme, I am not sure where it is orginally from I just found it on my Hard Drive and thought it was appropriate.

Here is a screenshot:

The following URLS are being used for a multisite:

So check it out and if you happen to be gay, bi or lesbain then please join our global channel hosted here on www.austnet.org the popular IRC Chat Servers.

Xortify 2.5.1 & Spiders 2.7.1 - Stable and SDLC Finished

Fri, 15 Jul 2011 13:01:56 +2000

This article is to let you know that these two titles of software, xortify & spiders have reached the end of their SDLC (Software Development Life-cycle). This means we have ironed out all the bugs and they are effective and maintained for the XOOPS Community from the performance issue of the cloud services alone. If you tried Xortify or spiders in the past and had issues that because they where still in their SDLC as RC. They are however now declared stable.

I appologies for any frustration you have had with these titles previously, but I will tell you we run a test adult site that are oftern spamed, etc. Xortify has minimised this so all you hear from is the clients and users you want to not all the comment spamming as well. Cloud science is oftern something that is difficult to balance, previously in earlier versions of Xortify there was no IP cache time, so it would do to many look up and slow down your users experience, now with an IP Cache you can specify how oftern you check an IP for details relating to spamming etc.

You can run Xortify without protector, all you need to do is turn off the provider in the preferences for protector. But we recommend you do run it with protector, as they don't replace each other only enhance the experiences of both modules. There is no longer any performance issue with Xortify, your user will never notice they are being checked for being a spammer. There is a couple of videos on Xortify you can see the latest on at http://xortify.chronolabs.coop or http://xortify.com - This project is in conjunction with Stop Forum Spam and Project Honeypot.

The following download should remain unchanged from now on you can download now if you wish, they are for prodomantely XOOPS 2.4 and XOOPS 2.5 but we have seen them running on ImpressCMS as well as XOOPSCube.

Xortify 2.5.1: http://bin.chronolabs.coop/xoops2.5_xortify_2.51.zip - 151kb
Spiders 2.7.1: http://bin.chronolabs.coop/xoops2.5_spiders_2.71.zip - 117Kb

All you need to do is unzip them and use your existing xortify cloud username and password or register a new one if you don't remember the password.
