OK - so this is my first attempt at selectively re-purposing content from my twitter stream. There are a bunch of export tools, but what I'm interested in is panning the stream to provide content that it's easy to miss within twitter, and difficult to access outside. Haven't decided where this will go yet, so I'd appreciate feedback (feel free to be as critical as you like - is this just pointless?). I'm also not entirely happy with the army of avatars - I've included the originals of people I've retweeted during the time frame I've taken the content from (yesterday) to stop it from being quite so Josie-scary. I'm thinking this might work better in smaller chunks - just a hand full of links or a thread. I've left out a lot from yesterday - a brief discussion with @rliberni about the politics of fruit and vegetable taxonomies, conversations about virtual learning environments and informal learning (although have left some links in), and a chat with daveowhite and @mweller about the dark side of interoperability and my future as a writer of sports stars autobiography titles. The conversations and broader context stuff that makes twitter a fun place to hang out. Maybe all this needs to be is a row of pick of the day links?

Eingang @josiefraser I thought we already had a term for homophily -- Balkanization?
josiefraser @Eingang Balkanisation useful - emphasises geo, social & political. Homophily more personal/granular? both good terms

Wouldn't it be cool if Twitter supported oembed and automatically provided an embeddable view of your tweets?

Yes :) But it's isn't just my tweets I'm after - although I could have just used the RTs here - the conversation threads too. also don't want to be posting millions of times from twitter - want a daily or weekly (or timeframe of my choosing) export of content, that I can then edit/choose from.
