The Syndication Of Comments Too!

Posted by Paul Colligan on Thursday, July 30, 2009

One of the reasons I’ve done the big update on PaulColligan.com (btw, the theme you’re seeing as I write this isn’t the final theme – that’s being worked on too), is because there are a number of features possible in the newer versions of WordPress that I want to make use of.

One of the most exciting to me is what I’m calling comment syndication. If you notice now, at the bottom of each entry, you’ve got the ability to comment on any of my posts (through the service Disqus) via Facebook, Twitter, OpenID, etc. In addition, you can even leave a video comment.

And since we integrate with these features, the comment and the commentary will go out to all of these channels. In short, comments are being syndicated to.

And, … why shouldn’t they?

Leave a comment via Facebook, Twitter, Seesmic and the like – and get a great idea of how this works.

And, yes, all this stuff works via the iPhone interface too!

    I've had Disqus set up on a few sites and love the interface and the ability to post from anywhere…. Plus I do notice a few referrals coming over from the disqus page…. Glad to see you made the jump…

    I'm pretty excited about it.

    Have you hooked up your disqus account to Friendfeed too? It's wild the levels of connectivity…

    i thought i did.

    Do you worry about duplicate tweets if there's a tweet from the disqus comments and from say Friendfeed? Or have you turned off the FF to Twitter blast. What is the saturation point of the syndication?

    @Colligan shows how knowledge marketers can now expand the conversation through syndicated comments. A smart idea from smart thought leader Paul Colligan from (over) the edge.

    I've popped in a few times today and seen a new template each time! Somebody is working hard!

    I've just updated my blog with Disqus as well, looking forward to seeing what the results are!

    Are you still using Semiologic? About time you added a search box!

  • http://www.paulcolligan.com Paul Colligan

    Actually, I still love and am using Semiologic but my webmaster put me on the latest version of WordPress – which Semiologic isn’t caught up with yet. Once they release the version for WP 2.8.2 I’ll upgrade accordingly,.

    Paul, love the new site look. The fun of updating… ;)

    Also, you nailed the exact point why I integrated Disqus with my own blog. I wanted that integration to carry over no matter where they were (on my facebook page, reading one of my tweets, visiting my blog, etc.). No matter where they came from, I wanted something integrated so they could leave a comment just like that. No need to enter e-mail, name, website, comment, etc. and the like.

    Tech once again makes it that much simpler eh? ;D

    Looks like comment syndication is interesting, but what are it's advantages as well as it's disadvantages?
