Robert has moved the ScotEduBlogs news project on a bit. He is now using Ruby and in a remarkably short time has got tagging, categorisation by authority and a “news” of the latest 10 posts from anywhere in the scotedublogs world working. More details on the scotedublogs » SEB aggregation wiki page.
The blogs listings are coloured coded to let the viewer know how fresh they are. Tags are added and the last few posts on the blogs shown with a nice Ajax/javascript way.
Robert says

The site should really be labelled “alpha” rather than “beta”, but if you do get the urge to add any tags, they will not get thrown out as the project develops. Let me know what you think

I think this is a great start which should really show people how useful this sort of tool can be.
