How live blogging should be!
I was live blogging JEEcamp the other day using CoverItLive. The software is great but it has a few shortcomings.
I quickly drew up this mockup of how I would like live blogging to be.
All the updates you do from within this service is automatically send to friendfeed/twitter and hash-tagged.
Every time someone replies to your tweet (either from twitter, friendfeed or from within the software), it will be aggregated and shown as threaded comments.
Replies made from within the software would automatically be sent as @replies to twitter/friendfeed.
This would take the live blogging to the people and not require followers to keep track of yet another window. They could simply monitor a search for the specific hash-tag in twitter or friendfeed and reply with questions and comments from their preferred client.
They would only have to go to the live blogging client if they wanted an overview of the entire thread.
Simple right, does something like this exist?
