Posting to Twango from Lifeblog or Online Share
I’ve been posting to Twango from Nokia Lifeblog application on my Nokia N95 for the past several days. Since Nokia bought the dogfood, I figured I’d better be a good corporate citizen and eat it. 
It’s not widely know how to do this, but here’s how you set up Lifeblog to post to Twango.
In Lifeblog, go to Settings > Blog, then Options > New Account. Set up as follows:
- Account name: Twango (or whatever)
- Username: your_twango_username
- Password: your_twango_password
- Server Address: http://api.twango.com/atom/
LonelyBob also let me know that you could do the same thing with the Online Share/Online Album. When you’re in the Online Services lists, go to Options > Settings > Advanced > Service Providers > Options > Add new provider. For the Web Address, use the Server Address listed above. Now you can create a new account in the application and enter your Twango username and password.
I’m told this isn’t official yet, so don’t expect support on it. That being said, it appears to be working okay. Try it out and let me know if it works for you by leaving a comment.

Just tried this (having seen it on Darla’s blog). Set up the account all OK, but trying to upload results in a -130 system error for me.

Great tip. Found it via Darla. Now you are on feeds too..:). I didn’t read LonelyBob*s peace, but tried to add Twango to one off the service providers by my own. Who said S60 isn’t intuitive?..:). anyway, works as well Flickr or any other service.

Same like with Lifeblog + Flickr. Sometimes does work and some others not. The uploading engine may need a fix. Anyway tx for the tip!.

This worked great on my N95-1 bwefore, but isn’t working on my N95-8GB or N95-1 now. I have checked the settings a dozen times and everything is correct (including password), yet my N95-8GB gets a 403 error and on the N95-1 the upload fails.
Has the URL changed? Anyone have any other ideas?
