WWW::Myspace Description

WWW::Myspace is a Perl module to access MySpace.com profile information from Perl. WWW::Myspace is a Perl module to access MySpace.com profile information from Perl.WARNING - DO NOT USE THIS MODULE FOR MASS MESSAGING OR COMMENTING.Myspace will cripple or disable your account:Older accounts:Messages will appear in your Sent folder but not in the receiver's inbox, although they'll be able to see it if they're paging through from another message. The receiver will get a "New Comments" notification and be able to see your comment, but it won't appear on the profile page.Newer accounts:If you created your myspace account in or after June 2006 (approximately), and you use a "bot" (including this module) to send messages, your message sending ability will be disabled and your account may be deleted. This is due to security features myspace has implemented to prevent spam abuse by people using multiple accounts.SYNOPSISWWW::Myspace.pm provides methods to access your myspace.com account and functions automatically. It provides a simple interface for scripts to log in, access lists of friends, scan user's profiles, retreive profile data, send messages, and post comments. use WWW::Myspace; my $myspace = WWW::Myspace->new ($account, $password); OR my $myspace = new WWW::Myspace; # Prompts for email and password unless ( $myspace->logged_in ) { die "Login failed: " . $myspace->error } my ( @friends ) = $myspace->get_friends();This module is designed to help you automate and centralize redundant tasks so that you can better handle keeping in personal touch with numerous friends or fans, or coordinate fan communications among multiple band members. This module operates well within MySpace's security measures. If you're looking for a spambot, this ain't it.WWW::Myspace works by interacting with the site through a UserAgent object, using HTTP::Request::Form to process forms. Since by nature web sites are dynamic, if you find that some interaction with the site breaks, check for a new version of this module (or if you go source diving, submit a patch). You can run "cpan -i WWW::Myspace" as a cron job or before running your scripts, if appropriate, to make sure you have the latest version. Requirements: · Perl
