Uber Bloggregator
A long while back, I posted about some a client side blogging experimental app that I had begun work on. Well, I am actually bringing that experimental stuff out into the open and am slinging out code for the coolest blog tool you can imagine. I've attached a screen shot of the progress so far below, but just to name a few highlites (other than the cool UI), I have built-in support for bayesian filters which allow you to mark posts as “Junk“ posts and enable the aggregator to automatically filter out unwanted posts. This is very useful if you subscribe to some of the massive aggregate feeds out there and have a hard time keeping up with what you are interested in because of the plethora of lame posts. There is also some other things I'll be building with the filters that are equally cool, but that is the one that is up and running right now. Additionally, the application contains a bit of P2P functionality that can enable all sorts of cool scenarios. For example, lets say that you are on vacation for a week and end up missing out on a bunch of content from your favorite feed. With a normal aggregator, you would be lost without any hope. However, this baby lets you search for other users who have subscribed to the same feed and download missing posts or even download posts from before you had subscribed to the blog. In any case... just a sneak peak. I'll try to make a preview available some time soon so that you can play around with it a bit.
