I just integrated the Disqus platform that essentially converts comments into a real discussion structure. Not only this, but the platform integrates the bog content to the wider Disqus community. I like this because it expands the idea of both virally distributed content with the notion that blogging is a medium of multiple authorship. By this I mean that with a blog, the content is often a seed idea for what should become a complex expansion of that idea through what others say about it.
I would encourage folks to sign up with Disqus and integrate with your blog if you can. It really is a powerful format to encourage community-building around blog content. Here is a link to the Disqus community page that this blog is now integrated with: http://notesfromoffcenter.disqus.com
Hope you dig it as much as me!
