Blawgistan Times

Even lazier than the LazyWeb, the Blawgistan Times trawls the blogosphere for posts talking about it, and collects them all in one place.

Or does it? I haven't quite figured out how it works yet. It seems to involve a Topic Exchange channel somehow - presumably it syndicates that into the blog as well?

It's interesting to see how people are involving the Topic Exchange in their own projects. With a Topic Exchange channel, a Movable Type blog and my RSS to blog script, you can quite trivially build your own totally customisable LazyWeb-like site.

So, what's next?
