When I work on co.mments, I focus on making it easy for you, adding the features you asked for, and improving the “behind the scene” engine.

I also take time off to think and reflect what it all means. How co.mments changes the way we talk with each other through blogs. How it puts the focus back on the individual blog. And you, the blogger.

Jeremy puts it in words better than I could:

And that is the interesting part. He tracks the conversations through the comments submitted through his service. Instead of looking at the full ginormous blogosphere, he is able to look at the conversations that his users are finding important. Think about that: he’s getting a magnifying glass view of the blogosphere, through the comments.

Last night I got to talk to Jeremy about all of that. It was a breath of fresh air.

Beyond the old-new AJAX, the raise of tagging and other valleymemes. We talked about where the tech bubble is going, and what parts of it reach beyond the valley enclave (hint: not much). He’s one of the few who live in the mix of things, but can see beyond the hype.

We also talked about the decline of Web advertising (another valleymeme coming up?) and what will happen after. I can tell you co.mments will take part in that. More in a future post.

Anyway, go read Jeremy’s post. He talks about co.mments, but also five other monitoring services that are key, if you want to do great PR. There’s a couple new to me, I’m going to check them out later this week.
