I need a "like" button that will work much like the "Share on
Friendfeed Link" <http://friendfeed.com/embed/link>
Here is what I need to do:
1. I know that one of my blog posts is published on friendfeed and I
know its entry ID.
2. I want to show a button under the post that will read "Like this on
Friendfeed".
3. If the user is already logged in (to FF), the button will turn into
a smilley, and the corresponding FF entry will be marked as "liked".
4. If the user is not logged in, he will be redirected to FF to login
and do the rest.
Due to the (cross domain) limitations of XML HTTP Request and
authentication, this is not easy for a 3rd party developer to
implement. But it should be fairly easy for FF to implement and give
it to us (it's actually a stripped down version of the FF page that
corresponds to an entry ID, where only the "like" option is visible).
Am I right?
Could the FF developers create this as a javascript snippet that we
could embed in our HTML pages (and takes as argument the entry ID)? Is
there an other way to do it?
