Hi Stephanie,

Organize the feed: It is a tricky problem to solve well, and where coComments working on a web based solution seems most effective. I think there could be a news feed solution that compliments web based solution better.

One of my comment to a Typepad blog has added me to “Rconversation”, which seems to be multiple conversations mucked together.

Lloyd: again, really sorry about the password thing. I’ll do what I can to ensure this doesn’t happen again (but it’s not something that depends directly on me).

How would you organise the feed? One conversation per news item?

Glad to know the other problems were the kind that are auto-solving

Hi again Stephanie,

Links directly: I have tried another new reader (Flock’s My News) and I now see that the titles are direct links to the blog post. This is great, I have amended my comment above.

Correct, it is just the “unknown” that bothers me, though not that much as I don’t think that individual news items for each comment is good for a conversation flow. This is where the coComment site’s experience is great.

Incomplete comments: it seems I may have been mistaken some trackbacks in that initial group of “unknown” comments.

Mostly, I was upset about receiving my password.

I am impressed by you caring,
Lloyd

by the way, are you still getting incomplete comments in your news feed? If so, could you point me to a conversation where this is happening? Thanks in advance!

I just checked in my feed, and I get links directly to the comments on the blogs. Not you? I’ll see if we can do something/are already doing something about the “unknown” issue. It doesn’t bother you that the feed adds “steph says:” or stuff like that, right? It’s just the “unknown” that bugs you?

Hi Laurent,

Thanks for the comment. Sure, I realize that. Currently less than 50% of my comments do I want tracked by coComment — I make a lot of Flickr comments, and it has its own tracking. Also, a more minor issue is I sometimes find the coComment comment “footer” distracting with its bright blue logo and link to my account.
