I actually seem some potential for improvement if people could embrace FriendFeed as the “master” commenting system, but it would require everyone to use FriendFeed.

Thanks for identifying the name of the FF Wordpress plugin.

Hutch, interesting point but maybe not entirely there. The likes of Scoble and Duncan have huge reputations that preceed them and can therefore easily adapt to any developments as they know people will follow them wherever they go. Just look at the effect of Scoble championing FriendFeed.

I actually feel that the small guy will have a harder time adapting unless they just jump tight in and establish themselves from the beginning. A smaller brand will become more dilute across a range of services unless it is handled correctly.

Colin – Nice post of a meme that seems to be occurring out there. You’re almost providing a real-time, “as it happens”, description of things. When the likes of Scoble and Duncan Riley get comfortable with this whole notion of engagement occurring anywhere, I think we’re seeing a change in the blogosphere.

It’s easy for me to like distribution of content and conversations all over the place. I’m a small-time newbie just hustling out there. But when the big established guys are talking about it, that’s something.

I also think bloggers shouldn’t be worried about FriendFeed or similar applications. FriendFeed is only making the various ways a story is shared on the web visible to everyone. It’s not a new phenomenon. Maybe the whole conversation won’t take place in the comments of blogs anymore but thanks to FriendFeed I have discovered some new blogs which I have subscribed to. In the end it will benefit bloggers.
