Even boring lives can have action streams

10 Jun 2008
I started experimenting over the weekend with an "action stream," a way of viewing one's activities on various social networking sites in an updating stream, a link blog of life.

There is a relatively new plugin for the Movable Type blog platform that implements this. After battling my own brainlessness for quite awhile, I got it implemented.

See my action stream. Of course, there's an RSS feed.

Does this "life stream" stuff have any value?
