In Jim Nielsen's redesign of his website he uses a collection of feeds to keep his home page up to date.
The thought was: if I condense the variety of the things I do online into a collection of feeds (hard-coded or live from other sites I publish), then I’ll never be out of date!
I've employed the same method of keeping my home page up to date as well, it's been working great. If I ever set to write something manually it's bound to be out of date and will probably stay that way. That's also the reason why I've stayed away from creating a /now page, I guess my home page serves a similar purpose.
