New kung fu blog with action streams plugin

Today I updated to Movable Type Open Source 4.1 with the Action Streams plugin. The most interesting result is an additional column on the main index page with a list of crap I've done recently on other web sites. I haven't done a lot recently anywhere other than del.icio.us, but as I start using some of these services more, you'll see entries show up here. If you are so inclined, you can click the "More..." link to get to an archive page with a link to an Atom feed of the action stream.

There's also a list in the far right column of the same page with links to my profiles in assorted locations around the web. The profile links bear rel=me, so once Google re-indexes the page, I should be able to use the Social Graph API example apps to see these connections. These links are automatically maintained by the Action Streams plugin and replace the static list of similar links that I maintained by hand.

One thing I do quite often is read new books. Action Streams supports Goodreads but not LibraryThing, so I made the switch and so far am pretty impressed. I also listen to a lot of music, but Action Streams doesn't seem to grok Last.fm's recent tracks feed, presumably because of the volume of entries that it would generate. I can live with that.

Update: There does appear to be a bug with the Twitter support though. I'm getting system log entries that say

Could not fetch http://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline/bcm .atom: 406 Not Acceptable

Not sure why that space is in the URL (I deleted and recreated the profile to make sure there was no space in the username), but it doesn't seem to matter; I get the same response without it. Anyway, if I plug that URL into my browser's location bar, I get an Atom feed in response as expected, but if i use curl to request that URL, I get the 406 response above, regardless of whether or not I include an Accept header or what value I provide for it.
