Man, thats cool and all but isn't that "screen scraping"? What would
be freaking awesome is some scripting tutorials that utilized the
Google Data API's do perform various simple tasks..

* updating your google calender/task list.
* checking to see how much money you've lost in the stock market via
Google Finance Portfolio Data API
* etc.. etc..

The thing that is really slowing me down is this....

So i setup FS and then started using FusionPBX to configure it and
made a non complex auto attendant using the GUI.
Now wanting to advance it further I find myself editing the script
fusionpbx created manually, tweaking it. etc..
The issue is now more of a lack of programming skills, so some
programming with FS stuff would be awesome. Lua,JavaScript,
whatever.... just all focused on getting it done with FS.

*Using other API's (Google Data API, SoftLayer API, etc..) within your scripts.
*Handling different data types.
*Retrieving/updating info from external databases, mysql, etc..
*Common programming mistakes, and how to avoid them, recommended reading, etc...

I can go buy a book about JavaScript but it lacks practical examples
of JavaScript being used with FS.

So theirs my 2 cents.... Hopefully my random, incoherent input is useful. :-)


Thanks,
Brian M.
