I've contributed to TWiki.org for about 5 years. This must amount to thousands of entries. As a blog is a personal journal it would be useful to automatically enter these into my blog.
To do the retrospective entries I would need to process TWiki.org. While I was there I might as well extract everyone else's entries. These would then need to be inserted into my blog. That would most usefully be done as an
xml-rpc / rest call.
To do the forward entries the most obvious option would be to listen to RSS: that would be a fairly generic solution.
rest for TWiki:Codev.BlogUp is not yet complete. I have a theory that it might actually already work, it's just that no one's worked out the call syntax.
As I am well over worked there is no way that I'd have the time to back-blog the entries, nor write the forward-blog rss listener but its worthy for any TWiki Constributor just for the Blog reputation effect.

How about to using PinkBack for exactly that. You could write topics from within your
own blog or wiki, refer to a TWiki.org topic and get that inserted there on a dedicated
corner of the page.
But that means TWiki.org topics must become pingable which is not very likely to
happen any soon.
If we had a PingBackPlugin we could have networks of wikis. ... reply
