Seems like this would be a lot easier if there were more O.Net RSS feeds; currently there are only a few feeds available. That way you could set up an aggregator and go that way.

Spot on, Douglas! But there are blogging standards that may be even more useful for decentralizing and distributing ONet conversations. In particular, consider the impact if the ONet development team extended the basic architecture of ONet posts to support trackback linking!

We have written an article on this and related ideas in our personal news post, Blogging ONet For Focus (which you will find cross-posted on our blog here). Of course these ideas/opportunties for ONetizens to blog their posts are not limited to WordPress.

In 2006, we would be very pleased to see the Omidyar.net community reach out into the blogosphere more effectively. This will not only enrich our conversations with additional insights from nonmembers, ONet blogging could work as a very effective outreach channel to recruit new members as well as potential funders of our projects.
