Description

I know this has been addressed here quite a while ago #94

At the risk of resurrecting a dinosaur that no one is interested in, what would be involved in reversing the order of liveblog updates in this current version of liveblog? Has anyone looked at this at all?

Depending on the way you present liveblog, reverse chrono is not always the most readable format.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the earlier related issue #94 and the current liveblog entry presentation. Determine where ordering for non-archived updates is defined, then clarify the desired reverse-chronological behavior and how it should be verified across the ways liveblog is presented.
