petroniaOccasionally I wend my way to Teaspoon and stare at the (currently) 917 pages of Tenth Doctor fanfic there. I don't mean read, I mean stare. At the layout. While pondering how the navigation could be designed in such a way as to not generate 917 HTML links per retrieved page. XD;; Not complaining as it doesn't ruin my life or anything, just... boggling.
(The categories/filters, too, which are comprehensive yet oddly... rigid?... idk I feel like the conceptual divides they imply are not actually how ppl write fanfiction about Doctor Who, though they might be how Doctor Who as a series is constructed, or even how ppl talk about it most of the time. But fanfiction exists to smear Doyleist chalk lines does it not. If ever a series ought to be all user-defined tag clouds, all the time, this is surely it. THE SEMANTICS OF ARCHIVE INTERFACE DESIGN, A FASCINATING TOPIC
Here is what I would like, I have decided:
* a separate del.icio.us account where I can tag the fic I read (almost an experiment, as it is I don't even know what it is I read)
* some way of getting said del.icio.us to post a digest to DW every [x] days
Thoughts on how to connect the tubes?
