Tweeter is a program that will update your Twitter status and soon to do more with social networking sites.
Download: here
You will also need httpQuery.ahk available here
Code:
Code:
#include httpQuery.ahk
#NoTrayIcon

Gui, Add, Text,, Username:
Gui, Add, Text,, Password:
Gui, Add, Text,, What are you doing?:
Gui, Add, Edit, vUsername ym
Gui, Add, Edit, vPassword +Password
Gui, Add, Edit, vstuff
Gui, Add, Button, default, Update
Gui, Show,, Twitter
Return

ButtonUpdate:
Gui, Submit

username = %Username%
password = %Password%

URL := "http://" username ":" password "@twitter.com/statuses/update.xml?"
status = %stuff%
POSTdata := "status="status
httpQUERY(buffer:="",URL,POSTdata)

ExitApp

GuiClose:

To do:
Ability to save the username and password. don't know how to do that will find out tho.
Add support for Facebook, Myspace, and email sites such as Gmail or Yahoo.
Make it notify you when a status was updated or an email was received.
Change the name.
Make an icon.
Tell me what you think.
Any help will be appreciated.

Facebook is going to be a little bit more difficult. I know for a fact that the submit button posts information to the following url:

http://www.facebook.com/(first letter of your first name)(last name)?ref=profile#


For Example - here's mine:

This would be the best possible way to go for updating facebook statuses: http://m.facebook.com/

After you have logged in, view the page source and you'll see the form for "what's on your mind?".

Another link that they help: http://forum.iopus.com/viewtopic.php?t=3527

I'll do a little research on MySpace next, but this should get you going. Very Happy

I have tried using this so far and didn't get anywhere:

Code:
URL := "http://" username ":" password "@m.facebook.com/home.php?"


I also recognize that the textarea name is the same as twitter: "status"

Here is the facebook source: (This is mine by the way)

Code:

<form action="/a/home.php?r050fa1ac&amp;refid=7" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="post_form_id" value="7fea01bf265f2e966786f5ade0b8a9b7" />
<div class="nopad">What's on your mind?</div><small>Robert</small><br />
<textarea name="status" rows="2" maxlength="420"></textarea><br />
<input type="submit" name="update" value="Update Status" class="button" />
</form>

I've been browsing around and this is very useful for a tool that I'm making, but I have a question. Does anybody know how to create a similar tool to this to create direct messages?

Gui, Add, Text,, Username:
Gui, Add, Text,, Password:
Gui, Add, Text,, What are you doing?:
Gui, Add, Edit, vUsername ym
Gui, Add, Edit, vPassword +Password
Gui, Add, Edit, vStatus
Gui, Add, Button, Default gUpdate, Update
Gui, Show,, Twitter Status Updater
Return

Update:
Gui, Submit, NoHide
URL := "http://" . Username . ":" . Password . "@twitter.com/statuses/update.xml?"
POSTdata := "status=" . Status

Changed:
    A few variable names

    When you press the update button, the GUI stays open and the program active
