<h1>Comment Problem</h1><br />
<br />
Shortform: How do you track blog comments you've made?<br />
<br />
Longform: How do track the comments you have made on blogs, comments made on blogs your interested in and comments other people have made on your own blog? <br />
<br />
How can you do this in a way that can be programically represented, ingested into some kind of datastore, searched or aggregated?<br />

== Examples of desired behaviors ==<br />
* I post a comment to a blog, and want to monitor responses made to my comment - but I don't want to have to visit the website regularly to manually check for reponses<br />
* I want to monitor all comments published to my blog in my newsreader<br />
* I want to be able to be alerted when someone posts a comment to my favourite blog<br />

== Examples of existing formats, products and services ==<br />
<br />
* '''[http://www.cocomment.com coComment]''' provides this kind of functionality by requireing each commentor to regisger an account with them and use a client-based bookmarklet to post a copy of the comment to the cocomment servers. This results in a [http://benmetcalfe.com/blog/index.php/2006/02/05/cocomment-semantically-forked-conversation/ semantically forked converastion]. It does however provide an RSS feed for each blog post.<br />
* '''[http://www.wordpress.org WordPress]''' already offers a comment stream RSS feed that can be pulled into the representation of the standard RSS feed of a blog via extensions in the originally feed.<br />
* See [[comment-examples]] for more specific examples of comments being published on blogs and other sites.</div>BasreLlaol
