I love the ideas here, but...
* if posts are limited to 2217 bytes with no external references then that excludes the richness of images, something I really enjoy about the modern web. Am I misunderstanding something?
* I think there's a pile of room for the client to display things differently from that imagined here. ultimately we would end up with clients that implement their own "algorithm", but that's a good thing because we're in charge of it.
* I always get irrationally stressed about the inefficiency of pinging a server every hour for a resource that only gets modified once a year, one of the use cases noted in the article. That's a lot of wasted 304 not-modified's.
