Twibook - A systematic approach towards twitter & Facebook
Abstract
Social networking is a platform where people can interact with the people of their age groups and of their professions. There are many social networking platforms in the
market which provide endless features to the users. Twitter provides the facility of posting the status as tweets which the followers can see and retweet as a reply to the status. Twitter has about 316 million users. Facebook is another effective social networking applications which also provides the facility of posting the status and pictures and making friends of different groups. Facebook has about 1490 million users. There are many users which are using both platforms to increase their socialism. Many people proposed the idea of combining these powerful platforms and some of them developed a few applications like tumbler, Instagram and social networking all in one. These applications only provide the facility of posting on different platforms at the same time but people cannot view the posts of others. We proposed the idea of ‘Twibook’ which facilitates the user with posting and users can view the posts of their friends and followers on the same screen. We used the GRAPH API for extracting Facebook’s data and REST API for extracting twitter’s data of specific user on the same screen.
