It turns out micro.blog is a pretty excellent live blogging solution. If you use the website you can append repeatedly to a post and just hit publish whenever you want to update. Open another tab for uploading photos and you can do that as well. The post is updated within a few seconds of hitting update. 💭
I wonder if you could pop a little Javascript into the post to automatically reload the post page every couple of minutes. 🤔
Ron Chester Can you link to an example? Sounds like it might be worth exploring.
Jamie Thingelstad Ron Chester I see, that's pretty nice. I'll have to give this a try at some point. Thanks for the new idea. It seems easy enough that I could even do it.
Matt Cassem If you’re using Marsedit, you can also do this pretty rapidly. I’m loving the idea you just gave me. 😀
Jamie Thingelstad @Ron it is definitely a new old idea. Live blogs used to be great for event coverage, before Twitter scrambled it all.
Ron Chester That's interesting! I missed the beginning of twitter and rarely attend events, especially these days. I've been thinking about using the approach for evolving thoughts on a particular topic. But maybe that's what a microblog Page already does.
