## Aggregation ## Aggregation
There's a lot of good 'Gemlog' content in Geminispace but no easy way to follow other users. Rather than use Atom/RSS which requires users to manually edit xml files, or use some other software it'd be good if a defacto standard emerged. Två will attempt to infer a Gemlog index from the contents of a page and display a 'follow' option to add the Gemlog to an aggregated in-app feed: See below for initial thoughts on aggregation. A simpler approach is to allow the user to follow any page, store a cache of the page, poll periodically, and display any change delta. This approach will work for both common Gemlog formats (links to separate pages, or journal single page logs):
State when user chooses to follow a page:
```
=> bar/ link to a gemlog page
=> foo/ my first post
```
3rd party updates their blog:
```
=> baz/ new post!
=> bar/ link to a gemlog page
=> foo/ my first post
```
Delta displayed in app feed:
```
=> baz/ new post!
```
