   @pettter What you want is just a service which takes an #WebFinger acct: URI and presents the information in a humanly understandable fashion. It will take you about 10 minutes to read how to do it, fetch the data, and dump it into HTML. Then it will take you 10 hours to make an appealing design and 10 years to make anyone else actually look at it.

     I think I might be able to get used to the XMPP interface for !gnusocial. But I have to make it so it will only send messages to a specific resource (like my bitlbee client). No need to spam my phone!

     @moshpirit Essentially that means writing an XMPP client for/as GNU social. Just saying :)

     @moshpirit Well, either it works as an XMPP client, or it works as an XMPP server. The latter is not going to happen, the first is a lot of work. Not saying it wouldn't be good to get more XMPP in the game, but there is a lot of work involved. The quick 'n' easy method would be to just have a plugin to a popular XMPP server (like how http://status.hackerposse.com/url/…

     @moshpirit Err, what Diaspora* does is, afaik, just to bundle and somewhat integrate (visually, not on the backend) the Jappix "mini" client. Imho that's a pretty bad way to implement XMPP "into" a service.

     @pettter I would like some integration with my subscriptions, or there's no point in having an XMPP client in the webbrowser... But what do I know, maybe Diaspora have done this too - they hadn't last time I checked though.

     @pettter acct: URIs are meant to be for this purpose, but noone ever implements anything that appreciates RSS/Atom feeds anymore. Everyone are only using API-locked third party services. Blogs are dead. Everything sucks. :(

     @pettter acct is meant for lookup. Lookup to find more metadata about an online persona. This metadata can include anything from XMPP accounts to blog URLs to the blogs' respective Salmon feeds (i.e. GNU social reply mechanism). No need for an ostatus: URI scheme ;)

     @pettter I'm waiting for either Microsoft, Google or Facebook - who all had representatives to drive RFC7033 (WebFinger) in their direction - to do this. I guess they won't.
