MemeStreams Feature Request
by noteworthy at 5:42 pm EST, Feb 5, 2006

I would like to request an additional feature for the MemeStreams site. It seems like it should be relatively straightforward to implement.

I'll explain with a use case. I want to revisit a particular date/time period in my stream. I recall some keywords from one notable entry in the neighborhood I'm seeking. I use these keywords to perform a search, either via Google or via the built-in search engine. I find the entry, but the only supplemental link I get is "Thread." What I want in addition is a pointer into my stream where that entry exists. As it is now, this information is a challenge to obtain. By default, Google hides the "pageNN" URL from the results, and even when you visit it, it's rarely accurate; it's "off" by the number of new posts since the Google Spider visited that particular page. In one example case, I found it to be more than two months off the mark.

This feature would appear along the footer on a search result entry. It would put the entry "in context" with the other posts from the same time period.
