Better Comment Tracking tools

Feb. 13th, 2007 By Kaly

Couple of days ago I was looking for an efficient comment tracking tool and while I was on it I decided to publish my top 2 selections. In case you never used one, these free tools let you easily follow-up on articles you comment. You can monitor blog posts, digg submissions, flickr pictures, answer/question websites and pretty much anything with comments. So if you need something of that kind, have a look at somewhat better options below;

Commentful

  • How to install: signup and install commentful browser addon(aka The blinker). You should be using either firefox or flock browser in order to install it.
  • How to track: go to the webpage you want to track, open right-click menu and select “Add to Commentful” (update: commentful also has a bookmarklet.)
  • Get notified: either by small blinker on your taskbar or by email

Co.mments

  • How to install: signup and drag provided co.mments bookmarklet to your bookmarks (all browsers supported)
  • How to track: once you’re on desired page simply click on co.mments bookmarklet
  • Get notified: either by email or through RSS feed

I setup a co.mments account, and have added a feed to my watched converstaion-comments to my bloglines. Neat, now I won’t have to dig through my browser history anymore – thanks!
