A liveblogging solution for Plone.
Project description
Life, the Universe, and Everything
A liveblog is a blog post which is intended to provide a rolling textual coverage of an ongoing event.
A liveblog is continuously updated with timestamped micro-updates which are placed above previous micro-updates.
Typical use case is the following:
the publisher of a news site creates a liveblog
editors add micro-updates to the liveblog as the event goes on
visitors of the liveblog get micro-updates automatically via AJAX calls
Mostly Harmless
Todo list
Do not load all micro-updates by default as the page could grow huge
Implement infinite scrolling
Prettify the prepend of micro-updates
Use fuzzy dates
