Not hard at all. We actually had that in early versions but removed it because it's really hard to optimize against functions, and you easily break the hub by injecting long running loops.

Plus queries are the power of pubsub.io. Queries can be indexed and compiled on the fly, so hubs scale very well.

If you really need funcions, you can fork the project and I can point you to how to add them.

I believe you are. Its not backup, its sharing. One stop file sharing versus having to choose sharing sites by file type e.g.[picture:twitpic,video:twitvid,vid-pic:flickr,pdf:scribid,slide:slideshare,...]

I recently used Dropbox to collaborate on an appengine python project with a friend and loved it. Since python is interpreted we didnt have too many issues with working on the same file at the same time (no compilation errors).

Exactly!

Knowing that somebody actually read/watched/listened to... something is very valuable, and I havent seen anybody create a reading list that leverages that data.

I dont consider an rss reader as a reading list, i consider a reading list as a hand picked list.

We need a digg/instapaper and i think donefeed can be it.

Discalimer: I coded donefeed.
