Version 1.4 of RedBook has been released!!!
I had finished this update a while ago but my minecraft crashed. I used this inconvenience though to create easier to read graphics.
DESCRIPTION
Spoiler
RedBook is basically FaceBook in minecraft (without the FarmVille, sorry about that). This is the perfect program for multiplayer servers. You can post status updates and be friends with people. If you own the server, you can be the admin. You can troll your friends by deleting their accounts.FEATURES

*Server log in system (meaning you can make an account on one computer and log into it on another
*The ability to make an account in the program
*The ability to post status updates

I do actually need some help on this on part of my code. So Im trying to make the computer write a variable to a file (using the fs command) but for some reason its not working. Here is the code
usr = PossieTV -- this would be normally sent over rednet but for demonstration sake i am putting it here
usr2 = Mom -- this would also be sent over rednet normally
f = fs.open(usr.."/friendlist", "w")
print(usr2)
nFriend = usr2
f.write(nFriend)
runApp()

It keeps hanging after I try and register an account, it shows me, username!SP!password and then I try to login i get either server error or wrong username . i checked the MinebookServer and it shows the Usernames I register and says Command Status update. this seams like a really cool program if I can get it working on my server

Make sure you have all of the server computers installed, Including the LogInServer and MakeUserServer (and they are three separate server computers not just one which means you must install each server program on a separate computer, I am working on a way to condense it to one server computer and it will be in the new update)
If that doesn't work then go into the actual MineBook program (open it with text edit or notepad) and make sure you've put in the server id's where it tells you

I hate to say it, but RedBook is the name of a CD audio codec used in early games.

Well, the GUI is good, the options look good and it seems like a simple interface, you may have hit gold here.

Does this mean I must change the name again?

No. Call it what you want. I would call it MineSpace or CraftBook tho.

I think there is like two or three different "rednet" programs that were posted by diffrent people. (not included the other versions of
Lua Fanatic's plugin.)

CraftBook is a Bukkit mod, that adds Integrated Circuits to Minecraft. I recommend sort of "Facecraft" or "Minefriends".

What you could do is just have it respond differently depending on the rednet message.
I do not see why you have to have 3 servers to do everything.
Can you explain to me why there must be 3 computers that handle a task that will happen rarely(registering)?

I made the server computer and the log in systems at two completely different times (like 5 months apart). By the time I developed my lua skills that far, my server computers were already wired into each other (in other words, it would take a while for me to change it to one server). However, I will take the time to change it to one server (because it is really annoying) and post it in the 1.3 update.

Could you please try and concatenate the servers into either one or two servers instead of three? Especially if you use Parallels, that should make it easier.

and you need some sort of status screens on the different servers so it doesnt look like there just hanging.

Make sure that you have the newest version of RedBook installed. The README file in the 1.1 download tells you how to adress this issue.

Personally what I would like to see is a encryption routine for the passwords just in case someone hacks into the server. This would be great.
I mean we all know the level of human stupidity where someone might use their actual minecraft password instead of one that has nothing to do with their account.

For right now, you have to search your friends to see their statuses. There is no ability to like or comment on statuses at the moment. In v1.4 I will perfect the status system to where it picks a friend at random and displays his/her status at the RedBook screen.
