The official coComment weblog

Competition

February 16th, 2006

It seems CoComment stepped into a new market - CommentTracking as Scoble puts it - and just like in every field, competition quickly starts!

So meet our first two competitors:

  • myComments, from Diego Fernando Gonzalez. The system works with a plugin you install on your blog, then all comments are tracked with a RSS feed. myComments currently supports WordPress and TextPattern but has an API available so that people can develop their own plugins.
  • co.mments.com from Aasaf Arkin. The idea here is to turn conversations into RSS feeds. Compatible with WordPress, MovableType, Blogger, Flickr and Digg, co.mments.com has already been deemed by a number of users as a good complement to CoComment. Why? CoComment has the cool community featuress co.mments lacks (blog box, user identification, all your conversation in one place), but co.mments does something we need to work on: the possibility to track conversations regardless of if people use our system or not (we call it comment crawling).
    We will contact all these guys, maybe setup an industry meeting ;-) and see what we could do together.
