I love comment tracking, co.comment or cocomment (that's a lawsuit waiting to happen). It's an important part of blogging, and it is nice to see what develops in conversations started through comments. Thanks for the link, Wes.

I'm not sure which is best, but I do think this functionality is excellent. Like Dean I think the archiving and tracking of comments we make in the blogosphere are very important. Blog dialog is certainly not as linear and clearly threaded as what you can see on some discussion boards, but the threads are there and tools which help link us into different parts of those dialogs are immensely useful.

I love the fact it stores my comments. But the RSS function seems wonky. I'd like to subscribe via RSS to all my comments in one place. CoComments promises this but I don't think it works that well. Alan Levine recently wrote about this service. http://cogdogblog.com/2006/12/19/adios-cocomment/ I may look at Co.comments as an alternative. I think we need to feel the same way about archiving our comments as we are about our own blog posts. I’ve been using CoComment as Ewan mentions and have found it only slightly helpful.

What would make you trump for co.mment over CoComment?
