Eeek! Robin has bumped my shower head analogy for feed grazing up from the relative obscurity of the comments area to a full blown post. But the embarrassment is worth it because he's tied it together with another idea - uniFeeds - in a way I hadn't contemplated -
"Merging the two ideas - I like this analogy of your content as the water pipe (your uniFeed) into the shower, before the shower-head (filter) splits it up into relevant feeds; Topics, Comments, Photos, Posts, etc…"
And he goes on -
"This is where the shower analogy struck a home run, the plug hole. The plug hole is where all those individual feeds of water from the shower-head come back together again. It’s the perfect capture point to see what’s happened to the content of those feeds, who else has referenced them."
Excellent, I hadn't extrapolated it that far. And the really cool part is that Robin's working on a Firefox plug-in that'll realize the plug-hole idea. He also notes how this compares to Sam Sethi's similar thoughts on what he calls a LifeStream.
