Does anyone know a way to post game results to Facebook, Twitter & text?
When the game ends i want people to have the option to send a generic message with their game result to either of the three. Any help would be awesome!

Hi,

I made a Facebook-specific commercial solution, which I sell as custom software. I could built it into your game.

Andre Garcia made another version, which follows the OAuth specifications. It is less expensive than mine, but I don't know what the exact status is.

Kind regards,

Mark

Hi,

It works, but you would probably want me to make some adjustments to make it fit on the small screen.

Kind regards,

Mark

Hey Mark,
So it would be able to take a score and post something like this as someones FB status:

John cracked 3 eggs today. what did you do?

The number 3 is obviously the score from the game.
Also, let me know about pricing for this.

Hi Wayne,

I just tried it and it works on iOS. It should also work on Android. Yes, it will let you post a message on a user's profile. There are also a few things you can't do with it, but those things are quite specific. Although it works already, I'll still need to make some adjustments.

You can contact me through a webfrom on my website.

Kind regards,

Mark

Hi,

Thanks to those that contributed with my little fundraising campaign, I am now able to release a minimal facebook library. There is still much work to be done and I don't plan to stop it.

You can learn more about my Social Network Library Suite here: http://andregarzia.com/page/socialsuite

You can browse the mercurial repository here: http://hg.andregarzia.com/livecode-socialsuite

I am still raising funds for this suite, so, don't loose your chance to contribute.

WHAT IS AVAILABLE:

* lib.aag.json.livecode - a minimal JSON library. BSD License.
* lib.aag.facebook.livecode - a simple low level facebook library.
* examples/facebook/simpleposter.livecode - a sample stack that posts to a user wall.

Remember this library is GPL licensed. You can only build FREE, OPEN SOURCE software with it. If you want a commercial version, then, you'd better join the fundraising.

So guys, can you please test?

By the way, you will need to register your application on http://developer.facebook.com. After registering, you will need to pick your application id and application secret and fill the setup card on the example stack.

I mergSocial from http://mergext.com for $29.

It is very easy to use. You add the external as a copy file and then have a simple call to it in the format

mergSocial "facebook",text,imageURL, URL


You are then presented with a facebook posting view. It's simple and quick and looks great.
