Movable Type 4.25 incorporates their newest product, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.movabletype.com\/motion\/\">Motion<\/a>, which trends towards what I had in mind.  I&#8217;ve just spent the better part of the day bolting the Action Streams components of MT4.25\/Motion into the templates for this blog, and it&#8217;s starting to show fruit -\u00c2\u00a0although there&#8217;s still a lot of debugging to do.<br \/>\nThe post directly below this one at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.geoffreylong.com\/journal\">http:\/\/www.geoffreylong.com\/journal<\/a> is evidence of this &#8211; it&#8217;s a syndicated link from <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/geoffreylong\">my del.icio.us account<\/a>, as indicated by the foursquare logo by the title.

The real goal is still to get something like <a href=\"http:\/\/github.com\/sixapart\/movable-type-reblog\/tree\/master\">reblog<\/a> working to import my posts from the other blogs, but I suspect its current dysfunctionality is due to a faulty cronjob.  Or something.<br \/>\nAs I said, experiments are afoot -\u00c2\u00a0apologies if things look fairly sketchy around here for a while.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For a while now I&#8217;ve been kicking around the idea of how best to aggregate the writing I&#8217;ve been doing in various places.
