# 21:37 tommorris I need to do some fiddling with the API call back to Twitter, so I can specify that it is in response to a particular tweet and user etc. # 21:38 tommorris the difficult bit was fixing my "take random markdown and turn it into a tweet-length string" functions # 21:39 tommorris just need to extract the first link, grab the status ID and then set the in_reply_to_status_id field # 21:48 tommorris mine doesn't do a preview, but that's cos I fail at anything JS # 21:49 aaronpk yea i cheated. it posts the text to my server where i use the same shortening code and it displays back in JS. so the JS isn't actually doing anything # 21:49 aaronpk it's super inefficient too, it posts after each keyup, lol # 21:50 tommorris I can sort of internalise in my head exactly what my code is going to be doing. this is one of the benefits of having built it. ;-) # 21:50 aaronpk sometimes i edit my text so that the twitter version has the right word at the end # 21:51 tommorris incidentally, a friend of mine uses the fact that on Facebook, when you create an event, it cuts the event title off after a few characters to say some very dirty things. # 21:55 tommorris nah, an actual JavaScript button so that if you are using Twitter and come to my site, you can RT the tweet that announced the post # 21:55 aaronpk but it doesn't look like a regular twitter button # 21:56 tommorris ah, so I could use the Web Intents link like on there, but replace it with a more traditional share link laurian joined the channel
