PaulHend Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 I want to create a site that acts a lot like StumbleUpon. I saw a similar thread of basic scripting code on this forum but it didn't really answer the questions that I required to be answered. What I like to do is to create a site similar to StumbleUpon and integrate APIs for a couple different sites. Allow users to find pages on Facebook and Twitter and be able to integrate their FB and Twitter accounts into it. Example, you go to the site, log in to Facebook or Twitter and you're able to browse content from those two sites, then you can like them or retweet them. Does anybody have any recommendations on the best way to approach this?

scootstah Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Given the information, I don't think there's a lot to say here. Pick your favorite flavor of framework and/or CMS, and start building it. Preferably pick something that already has some libraries for integrating Facebook and Twitter (and whatever else you want).

PaulHend Posted January 7, 2013 Author Share Posted January 7, 2013 Okay, so how do I make a login for people to protege their particular site? If they have a FB or twitter site how do I help to promote their site? I plan to use Joomla.

scootstah Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Well, how does StumbleUpon handle those types of things? How do other competitors handle it? Do some research on your competitors and come up with ways to be different, or better in some way. Obviously you will need a lot of users, so now you'll need to figure out how to make people come to and use your site.
