I supports the XPATH and ATOM stuff, but not CSS selectors, etc, since
I don't know of a PHP library for that. All this code does is take an
array (hard-coded just now) of service => username pairs, and extract

Big thanks to MT guys for most of the YAML (added last.fm stream,
edited flickr and youtube to display thumbnails) and all of the CSS/
icons and inspiration!
I hereby dual-license this plugin MIT and BSD (or compatible).
And, fancy de-duping!
Any scrapers that use HTML will not work. These seem to be for more
obscure sites.
Digg seems to block the wp_remote_fopen user agent. Blah.
To install, just untar in plugins/
Go to Users > Action Stream
If you have a url(s) (from standard or diso-profile enhanced profile)
that match a supported service, they are added automagically. You can
add more.
A preview of you actionstream is shown right on the page.
To add elsewhere the template tag is actionstream_render(); (you
can pass an optional userid or user name, and number of items to
display, default 10)
Enjoy!

Thoughts on more de-duping. Right now it just de-dupes /inside/ a
service... but if someone adds their tumblr or something and has
twitter in tumblr, etc, you don't want the same update displaying
twice.
Can we safely just do something like:
$done = array();
foreach($items as $item)
if(in_array($item, $done)) continue;
? or do the other services often change it a fair bit? Should that
be handled by cleanup inline (ie, facebook adds 'is twittering' - but
twitter adds 'username: ' and that gets detected and removed, so the
other could be as well...)
I think either way, detected dupes should be handled as current
"dupes" are - output the node anyway, but hide it (for scrapers, they
see the whole lifestream with all nodes)

I think de-duping will have to be more involved - prolly need to start
with the guid (in ATOM and some variants of RSS) as a basis, then
getting more esoteric from there.
