Better blog distribution, part 1 -- the assumptions
Dan
Sugalski: I loathe the current "poll for RSS" scheme of
seeing when blogs update, along with an utter lack of notification
for things like trackback links and comment pings. What I'm
proposing is an NNTP-style system with a set of loosely connected
server systems that take notifications from the end-blogs and pass
them around to whoever's watching, with the notifications
ultimately hitting clients connected to those servers waiting for
notifications of changes.
