I would assume this is an easy task for some of the technical people
involved in wikieducator.

1. Someone download and install the planetplanet software maybe use a
subdomain e.g blogs.wikieducator.org

2. Ask people interested in this to give the address of their rss/atom feed
or perhaps have a wiki page for organizing that.

3. My favorite part, teach people how to make their own hackergotchi(
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hackergotchi)

For planet talo I made most peoples hackergotchi for them with their
permission.

4. In a way this is covered in step 1, schedule a task to update the stream,
I update mine at 12 noon and midnight

I guess Ive been running mine around 3 years, the only thing Ive had to
bother doing was modify a text file to add/remove/update the feed list. You
kind of set it and forget it.

I would suggest talking to Jim or Brent about it, maybe run a trial.

I don't expect it to automatically be the best idea just because its
something I do, perhaps something like wikinews model is good too. I dont
know, I do know that you have some talented technology people with the
skills and experience to provide the community with a free web hosted
service for this purpose.

Kind warm loving regards and best wishes sincerely
Chris
