With the addition of Google +, we are connected again to another social network. With more people becoming members of multiple networks, blogs, twitters, or what-have-you it is getting increasingly difficult to keep track of your online activity. Lifestream offers a simple jQuery plugin to be able to pull from almost any network feed into one spot. Pull your tweets, likes, check-ins, and even your Github all into one simplified feed. Check out jQuery lifestream from Christian Vuerings.
Installation and Useage:
A really simple to use plugin. You just have to add a couple scripts to your jQuery dependancy and some account information for each network you want to stream.
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.6.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://raw.github.com/christianv/jquery-lifestream/master/jquery.lifestream-compiled.js"></script>
<script>
$("#lifestream").lifestream({
list:[
{
service: "github",
user: "doejo"
},
{
service: "twitter",
user: "doejo"
}
]
});
</script>
Lifestream even supports templates to easily customize each network stream.
{ service: 'github',
user: 'doejo',
template: {
githubpost: 'Posted: <a href="${url}">${title}</a>'
}}
Christian has created a nice demo page to test your social networks usernames.
