John Robb: "If you had complete control over a browser connected to Radio, what would you add to it that would improve the experience?" [Scripting News]

The ability to browse posts by clusters rather than calendar. A cluster is a collection of posts sharing a common theme. Examples are blogging, radio, .Net, programming, movies, Iraq, whatever. This is not a search, I don't want to search on "movies", rather I want a cluster button that would create clusters based on what is found in your posts. Selecting a cluster then shows the posts in a cluster in chronological order.

I would like to build an clustering engine to do this but my understanding of the radio object model and how to access it is limited. If I could extract all of my posts in rss, I know how to load them into a clustering engine. Assuming each post has some unique ID my engine would return the IDs in clusters. I could then render the posts by cluster.
