The key is to lay out the snippets in your campaign topics so that you can reveal an individual snippet easily to a player.
In a small campaign that might work. But the bigger a campaign gets, and therefore the more stuff gets revealed, the less well that works.

Ideally a player journal contained in RW will link to topics mentioned in it which will let a player who has missed a session catch up to some degree.
