As a community member, I'd like to be able to see a list of people who I follow on Twitter or friends on Facebook who are also members of the community, and follow those people so that I can more easily find interesting people to follow.

There is an API that will get a list of a users friends from FB:

http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/rest/friends.get/

and one for twitter:

https://dev.twitter.com/docs/api/1/get/friends/ids

I haven't done anything like this before, but it looks interesting.

Cheers

Tom

This module has the Facebook feature User Relationships Locator Module though it is dependent on User Relationship. I feel the API approach is a better route.

If the User Relationships Locator Module has covered this functionality it would probably be better to enhance that module than re-invent the wheel.

It looks like it uses the FB API to grab users friends so all that is needed is the Twitter integration written as a sub-module like the FB one.

Cheers
