“Enter Pubwich, a simple PHP script that aggregates data from
several popular social services into a single HTML page. To run
Publish on your server, you need the Apache server, PHP 5 with the
SimpleXML and cURL extensions, and the crontab tool. To install
Pubwich, download the latest version of the software, unpack the
downloaded archive, and move the resulting folder to the document
root of your server. Rename the cfg/config.sample.php file to
cfg/config.php and open t for editing. Specify the parameters in
the Localization and General site information sections. Next, you
have to configure the settings for the services you want to use
with Pubwich. To do this, you need to understand the structure of
the config.php file. Each supported service is stored as an array
containing the required settings.”
