Twitter Laconica sync

Twitter Friends Syncing ---

As of Laconica 0.6.3, users may set a flag in their settings ("Subscribe to my Twitter friends here" under the Twitter tab) to have Laconica attempt to locate and subscribe to "friends" (people they "follow") on Twitter who also have accounts on your Laconica system, and who have previously set up a link for automatically posting notices to Twitter.

Optionally, there is a script (./scripts/synctwitterfriends.php), meant to be run periodically from a job scheduler (e.g.: cron under Unix), to look for new additions to users' friends lists. Note that the friends syncing only subscribes users to each other, it does not unsubscribe users when they stop following each other on Twitter.

Sample cron job:

0,30 * * * * /path/to/php /path/to/laconica/scripts/synctwitterfriends.php>&/dev/null
 * 1) Update Twitter friends subscriptions every half hour
