Does Google index CoveritLive output?) However, I've just noted that CoveritLive is starting to do some integration with Twitter - see http://www.coveritlive.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=127&Itemid=197 - which looks very interesting The only issue I have with CoveritLive, which overall seems a superior way of doing live blogging, is that it doesn’t output as RSS – this prevents all kinds of nice reuse (and I think makes the output much less visible?

Thanks for a useful and interesting roundup. I've experimented with live-blogging a few time. I quite like CoveritLive (http://coveritlive.com/ which I used to do things like http://rooreynolds.com/2008/10/20/virtual-worlds-london-liveblogging - effective, and I like the way it updates for the reader in real time while the poster is adding stuff). I'd seen Dipity used a couple of times, but never signed up, so I hadn't realised how good it is as capturing lots of existing feeds. Thanks for putting me on to it. Hi.
