Trackbacking my own comments elsewehere?

dekay — Tue, 14 Jun 2005 08:02:07 +0000

Is there any way Ⅰ can collect trackbacks/pingbacks of comments Ⅰ made on other blogs?

Or some kind of tool/bookmarklet where Ⅰ can do the same thing by hand? e.g. Ⅰ create a post on my blog where Ⅰ collect all the comments Ⅰ make – and then have a bookmarklet Ⅰ open whenever Ⅰ comment somewhere and send myself this trackback?!

(Ⅰ guess this could be done with del.icio.us, but it rather feels clumsy – it feels like there should not need to be an intermediary between my comments elsewhere and my blog?!)

Mac Software Requests

dekay — Sat, 11 Jun 2005 12:12:11 +0000

Ⅰ was just thinking about how cool it would be to have a lazyweb-like system to get software feature requests out to mac developers (shareware, freeware as well as the folks at infinity loop).

Maybe it would be useful to start like this? Just trackback to here (http://www.dekay.org/blog/archives/mac-software-requests/trackback) and we can collect stuff for anyone to see/use? If Ⅰ find some time Ⅰ may set up a copy of Ben’s Lazyweb for this purpoose, although Ⅰ think there should be quite some other way to do this. Namely the features Ⅰ am missing are:

Tagging. Let each poster include certain tags so the whole request site is easier to browse.
Back-Linking (Lazyweb does this)
Auto-Updating (when someone changes their original posts)
Comments and threaded discussions. Have multiple authors trackback/ping the original entry and then have a threaded view on the main site.

Reinventing the lazyweb?

dekay — Tue, 17 May 2005 18:22:02 +0000

All-right, Ⅰ admit it – Ⅰ am guilty of posting quite a bunch of stuff to the lazyweb. Some other do so as well – but even though the service is really great (thanks to Ben for creating it in the first place) – Ⅰ believe there is another way.

Why not just post your blog entries to a category called „lazyweb“ or include technorati tag „lazyweb“? (You could also trackback to lazyweb.org, butâ€¦ that defeats my point, if there is one.). This would

reduce the number of „empty“ requests to Ben’s site – which are annoying but only slightly.
It may increase visibility as there are many more people in the know about technorati.
It gives people the chance to post to lazyweb through many different mechanisms, blogs, flickr, furl, del.icio.us â€¦

Basically it would replicate most of what Ben already has – you see a list of posts/questions, see a link to the original post. What you lose is the ability to comment on a question directly on „the lazyweb“ – but then Ⅰ am not so sure if anyone ever used this? (It would be quite useful if Ben’s lazyweb-comment system would trackback back to the original poster’s site, too..)

Ah, just wondering. Actually there is no need for people posting to the web to change much, just add that technorati tag and/or the category.

But what needs changing is the visibility to the blogosphere as well as an adopted reader behavior. Will we finally be able to get some forumness and usenet into blogs?
