Stubbing: Wonder if could have a blygexplorer like a block explorer.

Wonder if could have a blygexplorer like a block explorer. The blygosphere thicket (we should just start calling it the thicket) is better connected than old web so should make for a better exploration space. And since the links are structural in a way that hopefully resists atomization, discovery, crawling, and “garbage collection” so to speak should remain well-posed even if aggregators emerge. I’d like to evolve blygger.com into something that resembles etherscan rather than a flat directory. Map the thicket and make it navigable without legibilizing it. This reminds me of what is probably my oldest thoughts along these lines How to Take Your Brain Off-Road — 10 years ago, 2016!

Obviously I like this idea of blockchain'ifying blogs. I can't quite picture it yet, but I like it directionally.

Just spitballing, but what if blocks are created when posts are stubbed? That seems like a sort of proof of work. Random posts that just sit there on their own and get no reaction don't go into the explorer? It seems like a post activates the protocol when it crosses borders. Posts with no reaction are basically uncle blocks. No need to log.

I could see an argument for revisions having some kind of impact on the explorer, but most revisions are probably fixing typos, right? 

Anyway, just thinking aloud. Theer's something here. Not sure what, but something. Definitely a better model than a straight index or whatever.
