DailyKos Search - dKosopedia

DailyKos Search - dKosopedia:

300 diaries a day. At maybe 500 words per diary average, that's 150,000 words every day, a mid-sized book's worth. And that's not even counting the comments, which add hundreds of thousands of words. Every day.

Truly, trying to keep up with Daily Kos is like trying to take a drink from a firehose. And that pales in comparison with the fun job of trying to find something that was written yesterday, last week, or six months ago, that just might be worth looking at today.

This page is here to help.

This will cover 6 general categories of ways to cope with the mass of content we all collectively generate: the diary list, the hotlist, diary compendia, tagging, searching, and RSS feeds. Each will be looked at to see how they are useful (or not) for both filtering the daily diary deluge and for looking for information after the fact. That link once again.
