IM for groups. Cool. Now I need to have this integrated with my other IMs. I just can't have so many windows open at the same time (or can I?). Maybe Google Chrome Destop Notification? Maybe http://imo.im http://imo.im ? just guessing.
Nice work.
- ericflo 16y agoThanks! One of the things we really wanted to have before we launched was an initial version of an API ready so that people could experiment with building things like you describe. We've been happy so far that people have started to do just that, including someone going so far as to start working on an Android client! https://github.com/Pewpewarrows/Convoid https://github.com/Pewpewarrows/Convoid We happily encourage efforts to integrate with other services, although it can be tricky due to our added layer of structure (topics) that both sets us apart, but also makes it match up less cleanly with existing clients and services.
- jhrobert 16y agoI will get a look at your API. The one feature I will look for is the ability to get the list of the members of a group (so that I can dynamically create a wiki for them). Maybe I can do that using https://convore.com/api/groups/:group_id.json https://convore.com/api/groups/:group_id.json -- but where is the doc about what it returns? Anyways, it's nice to see that more and more new services come with an (often open) API. Well done :)
