Hi Lars,

I always liked and flirted the idea of being immersed into Emacs/Gnus
but for the kind of things I would prefer a whatever-to-mail scheme. 

At least that's what I did for RSS and thats what I had in mind these
days about twitter and a couple of other things I want to be notified
about.

With regards to the facebook API I had seen this little API browser that
had helped me a bit in understanding what is exposed and what's not:

Regards
Leonidas
