As with every application, before we get started, we need to think about what we want the application to do. That is, what are the functional requirements? At a high level, the description tells us what we want to achieve in broad terms, but, more specifically, we want the user to be able to do the following:
- Connect to several different social media networks
- Determine, on a network-by-network basis, which group of data (users, lists, and more) to retrieve
- See list of items from each network in a consolidated display
- Be able to determine from which network an item came
- Click on an item and have it loaded in the user's default browser
In addition to this list of things the application should do, the things it shouldn't do include the following:
- Respond/reply to items
- Comment on items
- Manage friends/following lists
These features would be great additions...
