Nels Beat Me To It: The Activity Stream
So some of you have noticed the "Activity Monitor". It's the newest addition to the site and with it comes even more functionality!
Basically it collects user information from several different sites puts it into one giant feed. So now we can look at one feed and see what we are all up to.
Right now I'm still messing around with the various plug-ins but feel free to join in on this hot Big Brother action. All you need to do is go to "My Account", click on the "edit" tab, and then go to the "Activity Stream" link near the top. From there you can enter your information and get to streamin'! Don't freak out if you info doesn't show right away, it may take a few min to get the latest feed.
Like I said I'm still working on it so don't be surprised if something doesn't quite work. For instance, Last.fm is cool to have set up but it totally overwhelms everything else on the stream. So some tweaking is in store.
As usual comments are welcome.

Question/Comment
I have a question that is also a comment: What's the point?
Additionally...
Also, now there isn't a list of the most recent blog entries, and the activity stream doesn't appear to include that function in its junction. Conjunction?
Conjunctioned!
I just set everyone up with a link to the RSS feed for their own blog. In theory that should make it so the Activity feed will say "Mule posted Blarg I Has Grant Monies" or what have you. However we are experiencing some problems with getting it to work properly. So keep that in mind if it fails to do it's thang.
Sounds cool
That sounds cool. What are the URLs?
?
For the individual feeds? Scroll to the bottom of your blog and there should be a small RSS icon. Click on that. Alternatively, you can check your activity stream settings and it should be there.
que?
Precisely.
Precisely.
