Website

Did a couple of things today..
Website
I got the website up and running that has my status updates. The link to the website is http://crypt.ucd.ie/poornima/mypage.php

I update my status from a login page with a username and password. The login page is
http://crypt.ucd.ie/poornima/index.php
This makes it easier to update my status.

When I enter my username and password, a php script accesses a table called person on my database and checks if the username and password match. If they do, then it updates the status. The website- mypage.php accesses the database to get status updates.

Twitter

downloaded jtwitter( twitter api ) and wrote a simple java program that takes a string as an input and updates the status on twitter. Going to try and do the same for jaiku and facebook tomorrow. Jtwitter has some other cool methods too...plan to explore those as well.
