I've been trying to blog within Mozilla via mozblog; however, I can't even get the darn thang installed on Moz 1.2. Now that the Mozilla Calendar project has shown me that you can do some pretty nice things by extending Mozilla, I'm turning my attention to blogging via Mozilla. Since mozBlog is not working (yet), I checking out some other paths. Following pearfear's advice, I have installed protozilla and will check out his very cool demo of RSS goodness within a browser. I also need to slightly grok XUL. Here's where I'm heading: since the Calendar project already demonstrates the concept of creating/editing multiple items, sorting them in several views (day/week/month), saving this data locally, and posting them remotely, wouldn't it be possible to hack the Calendar code to create a nice blogging tool? Would a calendar-based user interface work for blogging?
