Afraid you do need to have a userid/pass - Identi.ca lets you have a userid/pass but also assciate your openid to that account. I set up my account first (get a username and pass) and then associated an openID to it, so I'm not sure how to do it the other way round (set up an openID and then get a userid and pass).

So when I post to Identi.ca (through the web, through a client, or through this script) it automagically gets cross posted to Twitter. One certainly could use ping.fm to accomplish the same goal, or use <a href="/code/twitter-api" rel="nofollow">RSS To Twitter</a> type tools which read your RSS feed as well. @dudenhofer – Actually Identi.ca can automatically cross post to Twitter.

I'm curious what your thoughts are on that. Hi John, any reason why you wouldn’t use a ‘ping this’ plugin from Ping.fm for easy posting to both of these? I’m curious what your thoughts are on that.

I was referring to the URL for a source. Still a little confused by Evan's response though. So do I just need to file a bug with Laconica to get a URL added for a string? Thanks a lot for your help!

For the second, I believe the Laconica code base just stores a set of strings and corresponding URLs for the "source" of a given "notice" posted to a Laconica site. See <a href="http://identi.ca/notice/881470" rel="nofollow">my question</a> and <a href="http://identi.ca/notice/881776" rel="nofollow">Evan's response</a>. Two parts to the question, really:

Where to set the “source” in the Twitter Tools code
How to get Identi.ca to recognize that “source”

I've been testing that functionality for a couple of weeks now, and have not been able to reliably publish digests yet. It's supposed to be an experimental feature so I don't blame the developers, but what it promises is so great that I just wish it worked. Still trying though. -o The daily/weekly digest feature of Twitter Tools is great—if it worked properly.
