Communities per Weblog entwickeln
Now, the idea is this. When I come across a post on an interesting theme that seems like it might have lasting value, I want to be able to

Create a topic, with a title of its own and a definition or description in plain English (which may contain arbitrary hyperlinks). Just "where" the topic is stored is unimportant. The important thing is that it is a public entity.
Subscribe to that topic. Subscribing has two effects: it adds the topic to a personal topic list of mine, and it means I'll get posts by other people on that topic in my RSS aggregator because each topic is associated to a shared RSS feed.
Post to that topic whenever I talk about it in my weblog. This has to be *easy*, like checking a box or selecting from a drop-down menu displayed under the box where I write my posts.
Access an archive of posts on that topic somewhere on the Web.
Let anyone edit the description of the topic when important things are added to the "state of the art" on the topic, or when other related topics spring out of the discussion, to let people know where the conversation has branched off.

Mir gefällt der Grundgedanke sehr gut, da ich selber immer mehr feststelle, dass Weblogger miteinander kommunizieren, aber die Art und Weise (via comment Funktion usw.) finde ich im Augenblick viel zu umständlich und auch schwierig die Themen zu verfolgen. Siehe auch die "damalige" Diskussion um Links und Zitate von Markus Stolpmann, die sich ausgeweitet hat und immer schwieriger war, verfolgt zu werden.
