Development on Facebook Autopoke 4.0 to start next week

A long awaited update to my most popular greasemonkey script will begin sometime next week.  The following changes will be made my autopoke script:
  • a complete rewrite of the script from the ground up!
  • use xml_httprequest instead of GM_xml_httprequest to save time and overhead
  • better poke detection
  • poke war count
  • localization for any facebook language
  • better use of xpath and other tools that have been introduced
I know that this script is being used on other browsers (e.g. Opera, Google Chrome, etc) but please realize that I can only focus on one browser: Firefox.  You are more than welcome to port the script to your own flavor of browser.

Release date is unknown at this time, but I'm hoping for September 2011.

  1. Those who know the secret of your script are all eagerly waiting for your next release.

    They changed the poke so 3.5 no longer works as of 03/30/2011.

    Thank you for your hard work.
