		<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>Inspired by WordCamp Toronto (and the Flutter plugin in particular), I decided to spend some time figuring out if I could use WordPress as a tumblelog/lifestream without overwhelming people and while still making my regular blog posts easy to find. I also wanted to bring in some of the weekly and daily planning that I do. Here&#8217;s what I have so far:</p>
<p><strong><a href="https://sachachua.com/blog/firehose">Draft firehose interface</a></strong></p>
<p>It&#8217;s currently running off categories of posts that are excluded from the default RSS feed and from index.php. I&#8217;m half-tempted to make it run off files instead, because I can very easily rsync those from my computer&#8230; and that will probably end up involving Emacs. ;) That would be pretty sweet, wouldn&#8217;t it?</p>
<p>&#8230; or a blosxom instance that feeds RSS into WordPress&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8230; or an Org/Planner export that feeds RSS into WordPress&#8230;</p>
<p>Oh, the possibilities.</p>
<p>What do you think? I&#8217;m planning to offer several interfaces to my blog. Firehose might become the default interface (there&#8217;ll be a mainpost-summary version for people who like scanning and a main-post full version for people who hate clicking). There could be a traditional reverse-chronological everything view and an almost-everything view (excludes tidbits). There could also be an explore view full of random posts and &#8220;On This Day&#8221; goodness. And maybe another view for people coming in from search engines&#8230;</p>
<p>What do you think? What would make it easier for you to browse?</p>
