ProppFrexx ONAIR User-Forum

It would be good we could schedule a tweet to be sent a certain time (Add it to a playlist), maybe announce a songs name if it is a request. Also there could be a twitter window where if people tweet @<YourStationName> with the hash tag "request" for example, proppfrexx would suggest that song/a similar name song to be played. If that song isn't in the database it could suggest a song from the same band.

For the message it sends out, place holders could be used to personalize the message for the listener who requested it, such as {username} {firstname} ect..

Maybe also a mention and following window so the operator can see what is going on from the one screen.

great idea.

You might already use the existing Twitter REST API, as this is purely URL based - or am I missing something?
See the control-commands EXEC_SEND_HTTP_GET resp. EXEC_SEND_HTTP_POST

I was thinking more of a widget with more features as well as scheduling on the fly

Can you explain, what that should be?
I guess someone might simply write an extra application - which can easily be called by ProppFrexx via a EXEC_SHELL_COMMAND from within ProppFrexx.
Any other direct Twitter API is not planned .
