Hum. This is the sort of thing I’d want something like subreddits for.
One thing I’m currently confused about is what both the current and planned future visibility of personal blog posts is; are they currently visible from Community? Will they be in the future?
Hum. This is the sort of thing I’d want something like subreddits for.
Subreddits are one way to do handle that sort of thing, but it depends on the critical mass of of people caring about a specific topic.
Like, the “Zvi is in San Francisco – do you want to hang out with him?” thing is something that’d never make sense for a subreddit, but does make sense for people who follow Zvi in particular to pay attention to.
And people may have lots of topics they care about that are niche, but not yet have anyone else who cares enough to write about similar things to support subreddit.

They’re currently visible from the community tag. In the future we may rearrange the UI hierarchy on the frontpage in some fashion.

Obviously this post should have the Bay Area tag, and be made by Zvi, and show up in the feeds of people who have given karma boosts to the Bay Area tag and Zvi as an author.
