Let’s see where this goes

http://del.icio.us/tag/commentblogger

UPDATE: Two people thought I was proposing to change the tag “mycomments” to “commentblogger”. So, to clarify, this is a response to this post. I’m proposing that people tag their own blogs with “commentblogger” if they display their rss feed for “mycomments” on their blog. Capiche?

    interesting. I found this bookmarklet for MT from 2003 on some guy’s site:
    http://cheerleader.yoz.com/archives/001650.html

    “I was intrigued by thoughts from Lisa Williams and Paulo Valdemarin about maintaining a blog of one’s own comments to other blogs. The question is, how do you actually enable that? Paulo suggests some big architecture involving aggregation. I don’t like that idea ‘cos it sounds too complicated and requires that everyone changes everything. I’d rather do a quick hack.

    Here it is: Commentblogger. It’s a bookmarklet. Drag it to the links bar of your browser, then edit the URL in your bookmarks manager, replacing the YOURMTPATH string with the path to your mt.cgi. (Yes, at present, it’s MovableType only, but hopefully not for long - see below)”

    Hey Nico - I saw that you added the tag “commentblogger” to Hugh’s site. The problem with that is now it shows up twice in http://del.icio.us/tag/commentblogger/

    What do you guys think - should we only tag a site once, so it shows up as a proper list? Or should we each keep our own list?

    (Hmm - that actually reveals a two very different ways of looking at delicious.)

    once only…

    this seems to me to be a problem with del.icio.us, if eg you go to del.icio.us/tag/del.icio.us, the same url comes up many many times, all posted by different people.

    I agree with Hugh, it should be tagged once only. I already erased my two commentblogger tags for you and Hugh.
