Mass add friends on LJ - fast and easy
September 19, 2009 | Author: dimio 
First, let's decide what we added a lot of users as a friend? It's very simple - many of them may be in response to friends add us and we thus obtain the regular readers. Why do we need to explain to regular readers, I think not.
You may ask, what have LJ (LJ)? Yes, even though it is one of the most popular blogoplatform, sotvetstvenno there are many potential readers, and it is often indexed by search engines. Accordingly, the (And better not only in it) - a reasonable step.
For convenient and easy to add friends in LJ is now available free online script !
So, we need to increase the number of readers for broadcast in the LJ blog. We decided to do this by adding the mass of friends. What do we need? You can certainly write a bot that will search for potential friends for keywords of your site and then automatically "my friends" them. It was so worth it to do, if you face the task of continually promoting a sufficiently large number of sites. But the water will be available to the public if such a bot? I doubt it.
However, if we need to do all the operations one to two times for one or two sites - will be easier and cheaper to operate by hand (and of course - Glova 
):
- Go to and search using the keywords users of our site;
- Review the profiles of N found by users (we are not robots). Enjoying their lists of interests and that the extent to which there are our keywords;
- Create a text file, copy the code list of mutual friends found users (often coincide with mutual interests, which increases our chances of zafrenzhivanie);
- Copying lists of friends from all N users, we will have a file type:
000sap, 007man, 00o_f_i_r_e_o00, 00 × 00, 01ratay, 063_rus, 0t4_ru, 0tricalo, 10571057, 11_57, 13hero, 1cbooks, 1pravda, 20minut, 24companyru, 2_extra_life, 2che, 2pizza, 2tanic, 45mmlj, 4ezaro, 4love4you, 4uzhaya_zima, 64arien64, 72_m, 777anton777, 7799, 7nv, 848 604, 8kitekat8, 999 333, ...
It is time to handle it! It's not "just", but very easy!
A. We put into our file caused two successive sed 's:
sed "s /, / \ n / g" lj_users.txt | sed "s / ^ \ s / friend add / g"> result.txt for clarity, can be written as:
cat lj_users.txt | sed "s /, / \ n / g" | sed "s / ^ \ s / friend add / g"> result.txt Two. And at the output of the following result:
000sap
friend add 007man
friend add 00o_f_i_r_e_o00
friend add 00 × 00
friend add 01ratay
friend add 063_rus
friend add 0t4_ru
friend add 0tricalo
friend add 10571057
friend add 11_57
As is not difficult to see for the first user we have to hand add "friend add" ... But this is not a problem!
A clean file from duplicates (if any users have got it more than once) and mix records in random order (this may be paranoid of course, but in my opinion because less conspicuous if you add as a friend would) be like this:
sort-ubR result.txt> lj_add_to_friends.txt By the way, you can resort to using my on-line script , which is sufficient to indicate the name of LJ-user and in response to a list of friends to add 
Three. Now you need only copy of that list of users (at a time is better to take 150-200 lines) in the and press the "execute". After each addition of friends have to wait a while before the new addition, or as a result of the console returns an error, the meaning of which is to ensure that "you have added too many friends in too little time."
That's it! After a while (about a week) will need to check the list of friends-traslyatora account and remove those who have not "zafrendil." Of this I will certainly tell you!
PS For the removal of non-reciprocal friends can also use the online script LJ Add / Remove Friends !

This is probably one of the most interesting blogs that I've ever seen
. Excellent article, excellent comments. Keep it up! 
Yes, class, user-friendly work, respect!
Thanks for the really valuable information and for what share it with people :)
I plan in future to create a blog dedicated to useful links, by all means give a link to your blog :))
Not at all, and information in general, it is widely known
. But the scripts are similar to my offer for a fee (the ones I met).
Here are the scripts that have been very useful and understandable) Once again - thank you!
Use your health! In fact, the idea here is more valuable and more difficult to implement, so if you have any thoughts about these little helpers - from happy to hear
Dmitri, and that if I re-add the user as a friend? ie initially added, hands, and then re-add the script of the same person.
PS Thanks for the script!
He "added" again - that is, Management says the successful addition, and actual changes in the list of friends is not going to happen. Just went to the Learn and led the experiment.
Please
What does it mean to feed sed'am?
This means - handle text editor (do not know whether there is a windows-version of it) sed (abbr. StreamEDitor).
If you do this is not hunting - there is a script that creates a list of friends to add to Learn .
And for the other blogs (Liveinternet etc) is added such schemes or scripts?
Exactly such, I do not know. In my opinion, this is only a convenient console FaceBook, in the other platforms can only add friends one by one. Automate this process is naturally possible (for my twitter for example, I did just that), but then the script will need to either run on your computer, or do not be afraid to entrust the password from a blog to strangers.
Perhaps the secret of how to automate raskroeete foloving to twitter?
Using the Twitter API. For example, so in the case prosteyshems:
2
3
4
5
6
foreach my $ new_foll_id (@ {$ twitter-> followers_ids ($ foll_id)}) {
$ Twitter-> create_friend ($ new_foll_id);
}
print @ {$ twitter-> followers_ids ($ foll_id)}, "\ n;
}
Recursive traversal of all the followers of their followers, and adding them to his friends.
It is important to remember that Twitter API does not allow you to perform more than 150 requests per hour.
I am in general a script for Twitter lay as dodvedu him to a state in which it would be understandable to others
Yes, this script is very interesting. C API itself is not able to understand. Your script helped me a lot http://www.dimio.org/cgi-bin/lj-friends.cgi only because he has finally started to my friends)), before and could not figure out how to do it. Thank you!
I am glad that the script is handy, use of health
Good article, thanks to the author. script is an excellent
Tell me what to do
I add friends to 200 a day. As a result I am now banned as a bot in the LJ. How can I unban? Al wrote webmaster@livejournal.com but to no avail.
I do not know, I do not never get banned for adding friends. I think that you as a bot complained to one of the users. Should write to the conflict commission LJ.
Good day! Use your script for 3 or 4 times. Everything is working. The percentage of mutual frendinga in my estimation 10.5 percent at most.
dimio, and you can help yourself to gain friends for an award? I wrote my post, you can get in touch. and then I'm not strong script, and there is no time. but the desire to increase the readers - have
Yes, and there seems no need to be strong in the scripts. Once able to leave a comment - will understand, I think. The same form for the input and "Send" button.
but there is no chance of entry into the community script you :) such a script would also be very helpful! maybe even a mass entry into the community through the administration panel?
Help on commands from the console, WJ:
Obviously, the answer to your question - no, not a mass membership.
Just do not quite appreciate the script generate a list of friends on LJ. Thank you very much. We have 3 blog on Livejournal raised puzomerki and all thanks to adding friends. THANK YOU!
You're welcome! Distribute once benefited from the
Strange. Once added, but now always says that I'm trying to add too many friends in a short time. Although the first time added about 30 people and then tried to 20.
Learn the rules should be read - that there are states in this regard. Could limit the time to introduce such, in addition to the existing 200 friends / day.
Great script! Very convenient, quick and easy! Thank you!
