backfeed responses to mentions/tags

[snarfed]

when a silo post has mentions or person tags, we should try to backfeed responses to those users' web sites, if we can, in addition to any original post links we discover.

necessary if the third actor in indieweb http://indiewebcamp.com/SWAT0 is using a silo.

Looks like Flickr is the only remaining silo we'd do this for, via people.getPhotosOf etc.

This will help me get closer to uninstalling the Twitter app from my phone.

Oh wait.. this is already implemented for @mentions on Twitter per #523?

[snarfed]

heh, sorry, it's definitely confusing. #523 is for mention posts themselves. this is for responses (likes, replies, etc) to those mention posts. related, but different.

i am starting to look at these now though, in hopes of getting silo SWAT0 running by IWC SF on 12/3. i'd love help!

Gotcha! Awesome.

current silo support is mostly the same as #523 + #488:

• Twitter: yes for mentions, via search; no for photo people tags, they're not exposed in the API.
• Google+: kind of for mentions, via search. details in backfeed silo mentions from other people #523. no for tags.
• Flickr: yes, via people.getPhotosOf etc.
• Facebook: yes for tags, no for mentions.
• Instagram: no.

For Flickr in particular, here is an example:

• https://www.flickr.com/photos/zeldman/37368624414/
  Jeffrey posted the photo, and person-tagged me in it. I got a Flickr notification, but I'm also signed up on Bridgy / Flickr so I'd expect to get a person-tag of tantek.com from Bridgy Backfeed
