DISQUS

Chris · 1 year ago

Hey Todd, here is what i gathered from their hack, its a bit different:

1) Load Reader Roll through javascript.
2) Wait for onload function of body to be called
3) Look at first person image, run a regular expression validator on code and if an ID proceed.
4) If an ID, run it through scrapper to see if valid member, if so, success!

Thanks for the clarification Chris. It is still really good voodoo.

Todd -

Thanks for the compliments! "Simple, but brilliant!" You certainly put a smile on our faces. (Can you see my MBL avatar's new smile?)

We'd love to have you as a customer...there's more magic to be discovered in our system, and much more coming - and we already support OpenID!

Let us know if there's anything we can do to help!

Todd -- I knew the Intense Debate guys rocked before I even knew they did this magic :) This is sweet.

I love it! I might have to steal that hack for EventVue.

Just to make sure the love is shared. Jon from Intense Debate pointed out that the guys at Lijit helped in giving them the idea. So, thanks also go out to Todd and his great crew at Lijit.

And, if you haven't see Lijit's first MyBlogLog API hack, you should check it out in the right side-bar on Todd's blog:
