Roll Your Own Lifestream With WordPress

Ever wanted to know how to stream your life using WordPress? Matt Mullenweg does it with his blog, Adii does it with his and now you can to. The idea is to publish snippets along with the usual long form content. The problem is, the snippets and the long form content look the same unless you use some CSS along with a few other techniques. While there are a few different plugins and themes that accomplish this use of WordPress, Jestro explains how to roll your own.

However, Jestro talks about modifying a themes index.php and single.php something that may be a problem for those using a child theme based on a framework. If you follow through with this technique for your own blog, send me a link to take a look at it in the comments.
