Timeline/blog thing

Maybe you saw my plurk about trying to find a web app that’s something like dipity, or plurk, or wordpress all rolled into one. Probably the ideal would be something based on Wordpress – mainly because I’m already fairly familiar with it.

I thought I’d found what I wanted – a plugin for Wordpress that shows a timeline of posts… but sadly it’s borked with wp 2.8.2.  At least I think it’s borked.  It might just be me.  If it gets updated I’ll be giving it a try.

In the meantime, take a look at this… it’s an embedded version of a timeline I set up in dipity, built by importing the posts from this blog.  Rather roundabout, I know, but it gives a very rough idea of what I’m after.  A sort of timeline-based microblog.  Who knows, maybe dipity, or xtimeline, or allofme (when it’s working), or timeglider (ditto) might be what I want.  I’ll let you know.
