Same tag

I know that delicious is about everyone using their own tags / emergence / folksonomies / yada yada. But I think everyone should use the tag “mycomments” for this keeping track in delicious. And then I can keep an I on the rss feed for the tag “mycomments” in delicious and I’ll see what people are saying. Fun!

and by the way, now is a good time to say that keeping track of comments via delicious is not the part that I find so interesting. I think it’s cool, and I thought of it myself, but it’s no big deal. This guy was doing it long before I started.

What I’m excited about is this being another form of blogging. I can subscribe to someone else’s “mycomment” rss feed, or (hopefully) some people will display their own “mycomment” rss feed on their site. It’s like being your very own mini-guest blogger ;-). And I also keep on thinking of it as a 2nd generation blogroll.

    mike should you add something to keep track of bloggers who “join” the project, instead of of everyone in del.icio.us … like yulmycomments or something?

    I’ve seen it called reverse trackbacks. There’s a plugin for it for Wordpress, but it’s centralized, i.e. you only get to display your comments on your own blog, and uses a tiresome external tool. That is, you have to manually enter the uri, comment excerpt etc.

    I’d like to see some automated way of keeping track of commenting. A sort of hybrid between blogs and forumsesses.

    Why won’t it work??

    Okay… so I managed to set up the delicious RSS feed here and I am not even the one who wanted it… Has anyone else tried to set up this plugin using a flat file installation of movable type??…
