Wiki/Blog Hybrid


As much as possible I've tried to make this site a hybrid of blog and (privately-editable) wiki. In fact, blog entries are just wiki pages whose location in the URL space of my site means they get picked up by both my atom Atom feed generator and the "by day", "by month", "by year" and "all" blog entries listings. The site's current API (as RESTful as the lack of PUT support in browsers allows me to be) doesn't distinguish wiki page from blog entry.

As a blog entry is a wiki page in my homegrown system it raised questions in my mind about the extent to which a wiki page is blog-entry-like. This in turn gave me the idea of making an Atom feed consisting of an entry for each page on my site. This "site map" feed isn't a change log, it summarizes the actual site itself.
