update: follow our blog! http://bucket3.com/blog/

bucket3 would like to become a virtual “information bucket” where you throw pieces of information (texts, images, audio, etc), and presents them in a nice blog-like way.

bucket3 is following some of the principles I like the UNIX environment for:
– modularity: small tools that can be easily combined together to do complex tasks.
– simplicity: most things are done and controlled by text files located on the file system.

In order to put bucket3 to do complex tasks, users should not have to dig into APIs. All they have to do is write a program or a script that generates simple text files.

Examples and Ideas:
– create new posts summarizing your server logs.
– write a simple bash script that pulls your twitter posts or favorites and creates a blog post
– integrate bucket3 with systems like dropbox.com and edit your posts “locally” on your home machine.
