can I use wit.ai for non-facebook bots? - wit.ai

I know wit.ai is actually facebook, so is there an option to use this NLP with a non facebook messenger bot?
I would like to use it in many messages channels ON TOP of facebook messenger...

Yes, you can use it in any channels you want. See the http reference https://wit.ai/docs/http/20160526, so now everything is now just http requests and thus you can call the api from anywhere you want.

This is an API and you can use it everywhere.

Instagram - Get Direct Message

I'm writting a new post, because all of topics that was related with getting Instagram Direct message via API are a little bit old.
Do anyone knows if there is a possibility of GET Direct Messages via API or in some programatically way?
Right now, it doesn't look like you can. The Instagram Graph API docs don't mention direct messages at all. The old Instagram API never had this.
Take a look to the Component InstagramApiSharp, it contains this functionnality. There are some actions that you can built for the direct message with it.

Notification on Feeds URL

I am .net developer.I need some clarification in the feeds notification.
I have some list of RSS feed url (e.g more than 100 URL).
My question is I want to develop a console application to get notification if the new item comes in any of the 100 URLS.
What is exact way to do this. Please guide me.
Can we make use of the pubsubhub protocol for this requirement or any other simple approach is available to do this.
Thanks,
Jayakumar
Yes, PubSubHubbub is a protocol that you could use for this. Now, it's not implemented by all feeds out there, so you'll have to resort to polling. Another option is to use services like Superfeedr which provide a webhook mechanism to notify your application when a feed has been updated.

photos of people you follow instagram api

How can I get a feed of photos/videos from people I follow from the Instagram API? This seems like a pretty basic API feed that it appears to be missing. I see where I can get a list of the people I am following, but them am I supposed to make separate API calls for each of those user feeds and aggregate all of those together?
http://instagram.com/developer/endpoints/relationships/#get_users_follows
I'm wondering how a service like http://web.stagram.com/ does something like this. I'm assuming aggregation, but perhaps I am missing something in the API.
The /user/self/feed endpoint returns all videos and photos of the user associated with the given access token. See here: http://instagram.com/developer/endpoints/users/#get_users_feed
This is an example of using this endpoint: https://api.instagram.com/v1/users/self/feed?access_token=969629.f59def8.24f8add8d4d7475397ab09b361299665
The Instagram API does not support what you are attempting. You would need aggregate these yourself. Not sure if webstagram has special access or has to work around this as well.

Google+ post or "+1" something using Google+ API

I see that Google started to offer some alpha API.
Is there any way to post something in Google+ using Google+ API? If not the same way as for Facebook and Facebook SDK, at least something similar.
I would like to implement it in a native iOS/Android code.
No. I expect that similar to how there is no way to implement a Like via an API, there will never be an API to allow sending a +1 via an API. It is expected and intended to only ever be done by direct action by a user, NOT something that can be manipulated by a programmer to artificially inflate their rankings.

Twitter site-streams

I would like to use the twitter site-streams but I can't find a way to use them. There is no API-docs online and how to access site-streams.
Does someon have an example in php or better c#?
Are there any API-samples or a full API-doc?
Thanks
Matthias
I called oAuth before doing something similar to Shannon Whitley's user streams example. Use the curl commands generated for you at dev.twitter.com to double check your C# generate urls.
The site stream url is buried in the top middle of the doc (/2b/site.json?follow=1,2,3,4,5) # dev.twitter.com
I'd also follow #sitestreams as well to get heads up on site stream restarts.
The API looks to still be in beta, I found this. It's not a lot of detail, but the post was only a few weeks ago so it is something pretty new. It uses the same REST API that all of twitter uses so if you are familiar with that you should be able to use what it gives you.
If you need a tutorial on REST with twitter here is a decent tutorial. It is using basic authentication so I do strongly recommend that you use OAuth instead.
