Choqok the new and impressive micro-blogging client for KDE is one of the best clients for microblogging sites. The tool available via the default repositories of Ubuntu does not support the latest OAuth authentication of Twiiter. This means that it wont be able to connect to twitter.

You will need the latest version of Choqok to be able to reconnect to twitter. This can be done as shown below

  • Open the Konsole and execute the following commands:
  • $ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:adilson/experimental

    $ sudo apt-get update

    $ sudo apt-get install choqok

  • Once installed you will need to reauthenticate your twitter feeds.
    Select the Settings -> Configure Choqok menu item
    In the Accounts tab remove all the old twitter accounts and add them back again
    For each account you will be taken to twitter.com to give permission for Choqok to access your data
    Once done you will get a number, copy-paste the number back in Choqok dialog to get Choqok working again.

The new Choqok also has added features of auto-complete for friend names and better integration with url shortening sites.

Facebook might be a fun social networking site to meet new friends and interact with them but thanks to the unimaginable number of applications available on Facebook it makes it a hard task to keep tab of all the apps you have authorized. A lot of these apps have access to information like your photos, friends and personal details. It clearly seems like a good idea to keep an eye on the applications you have added on your facebook page.

One of the simplest ways to check on the applications you have added is by following the below steps.

1. Go to the Application Settings page from your Facebook home page. The link is available under Account

2. In the next page, click on the drop down box next to the text “Show:” and choose Authorized

3. Double check the list of applications you have added, to remove an application simply hit the x at the end of the line for each application.

Do this check once every few weeks depending you your Facebook usage.
