It follows your conversations in the Web with CoComment
One of the great advantages of blogs is the communication with the author, and between the readers, who settle down themselves through the commentaries. One of the principles of blogging is that “your readers know more than you”, which is always translated in that will be a reader who can contribute interesting information, correct or emphasize something, to recommend other readings, etc.
Surely this one is not unique blog that you read after the day, but you will have a few favorites or, the addict ones to agregadores RSS perhaps read more than 100 every day. Arrived at that point, when one makes a commentary, it is impossible to remember in that you did blog it, and periodically to visit the page to see what others have written. We can use feed RSS of that entrance, but after the time he would not be nothing comfortable. A solution is the option to subscribe via email to the commentaries, option that exists for example in this blog, but that it requires that the author has worried to add that functionality, reason why many blogs do not have it.
What to do then? Luckyly a called service CoComment exists that is indeed in charge to solve this problem: whenever we write commentary in blog, CoComment will order to follow that conversation, so that when we want we pruned to see meetings all the conversations in which we have participated, and to read the commentaries that are added later (to see an example).
All our conversations reunited in a single site
There are two ways to use CoComments, to simpler what:
- If you do not use Firefox, you only must create a favorite with a certain code that they give us (is very easy, simply it is necessary to drag & to drop a connection in the bar of favorites) and, whenever we are going to write a commentary, before we must press this button, so that CoComment keeps that conversation. There are instructions of how creating that favorite using Internet Explorer, Safari, Opera and Firefox.
- Nevertheless if you use Firefox, most comfortable it is to install his extension. Once fact this (it is necessary to reinitiate Firefox when extensions settle) CoComment automatically will detect when you are going to leave a commentary, and will show a small bar in the framework of text, where we will choose if we want to stay abreast of this conversation or no, to form our preferences, etc. Also will appear a small icon in the bar of state, that informs into when there are commentaries without reading, and clicking in him, it takes to see them to us.
The bar of CoComment in the text field
If you decide to begin to use it, you have blog of test specifically to realise tests and to see as the system works. As véis is really easy to use, and I can say that it works very well. When one wants goes to its profile in the page of CoComment and to read the new commentaries, to erase conversations that no longer interest, etc. Not only works with blogs, also with flickr, digg, menéame, or any page where commentaries are left.
In the community section we will be able to discover who comments in the same conversations that we, to follow the commentaries of other users, and with the commentaries of all the users, are realised the most commented classification of, than he can be useful to know qde that he is being spoken at every moment in Internet. Plugin for WordPress in ours can even be installed blog, so that the readers know in what other sites we have commented.
The service still offers more possibilities, but it is not question of abrumaros with all the details. In order to see with more calm the operation a guided visit exists that explains all the functionalities step by step to us.

The idea in himself is very good, but with time one ends up commenting in very few sites, when is become one more and more demanding on the matter from the quality of the contents generated by the author (is) and the commentators.
Perhaps on the other hand, you would have to incorporate plugin of the last commentaries in WordPres, so that your readers know of the state of the conversation in PDA.
Days I installed back it in one of the binnacles of Quiñonero. Two days ago I discovered certain incompatibilidades of plugin with the style, renderizado by the IE (to which every time I have more odd habit).

Ah you have, them, but at the end of the page! You would have to raise them in the beginning, underneath the search or of the last annotations, I say, so that they are more visible, than for that is plugin.
The amount of commentaries depends on the way to be of each. I for example am not very inclined, but when she is spoken of that she interests to me I she likes to collaborate with some contribution.
A quite great utility to be abreast of the commentaries, is for example when you want to know to the answer before a doubt or suggestion that you contribute for example to the developer of plugin. or something similar. It is better than to be every day watching if it has answered to you.
I will raise the last commentaries, are very down. The lateral bar is too small for all the things whereupon it can help to sail with the site…
And yes, Internet Explorer is a potato that forces to alter the design once finished so that it sees well in him, when it would not have thus to be.
then if he is but comfortable that the warning is automatic like in your blog. Generally, in that they do not have this functionality, somebody comments, the author responds to him, but this person does not return to watch the answer…
Months ago I began to use this extension of Firefox and I have become addict to her. He is frankly useful.
