In the most ideal world, Iād love to be able to use the Post Kinds Plugin to create follow posts (see my examples). This plugin is already able to generally use bookmarklet functionality to pull in a variety of meta data using the Parse This code which is also built into Post Kinds.
It would be nice if these follow posts would also copy their data into the Links Manager (to keep things DRY), so that the blogroll and the OPML files are automatically updated all at once.
Thank you for documenting so much about this topic Chris. I too would like the ability to incorporate Follow posts into my list. Really should get back to updating my feeds too.
