I made it onto the top10 on Cocomment!!!
There is definatly quite a stir about this site, its going to be big, the simplest ideas usually seem to work the best, and this one is pretty simple and something i felt the need for the past few weeks.
Its currently still in beta and the invites are hard to come by, i got one off a fellow blogger, i think the best place to get hold of one is on the popular Scroblizer blog.
All you do is after you have finished writing your comment, press the cocomment bookmarklet, then hit the normal submit button and the comment/conversation will appear on Cocomments “Your conversations” page when you log in.
Being able to check and even be notified about responses to your comments on any blog, run on any of the six major blog bases (Blogger, MSN Spaces, MySpace, TypePad, WordPress and Xanga) all from one place is a bloggers dream, it means no more diving through your history to find that obscurely named blog that you were waiting for a comment from.
With Cocomment you can check on an rss feed or just go to the site and see all of the blogs you have commented on, if any have new responses they are bold, and then you can view the response from the cocomment site as well. The only step you have to take away from the “your conversations” page is to reply, and i can see that built-in replying cant be too far away either.
It could become like a blog viewing hub, there are a lot of possiblities for this idea, i hope they get it right, because if they do it could be huge!
There is also a greasemonkey script available here for automatically hitting the bookmarklet for you (thanks Ryan)
Dont forget to Digg this if you found it useful.

Thanks for the feedback!
Wow thanks laurent, glad you found the feedback useful
oh and thanks for the digg, hopefully it will get on the frontpage andthen a lot more people will hear about it!
I still keep forgetting to hit the bookmarklet tho, i’ll put the greasemonkey script on it in a bit.
look whos #3 there. OH SNAP!
You actually forgot to talk about the GreaseMonkey script mentioned on my post. :-\ It’s more helpful than the bookmarklet
I’ve put some greasemonkey in it and a link to yur blog, you might see a few extra hits today too!
Wow, thanks for the invite Laurent.. I’ll be doing a review soon… CoComment seems to rock definitely!
Damn it. The codes have been taken already. If anyone’s got an extra, Please mail me @ Coolcracky@gmail.com.
And I’ll be doing some TEchnorating until then!
i can definitely see the use of something like this. i personally probably wouldn’t though … most of my comments are one shots, then i’m gone. like this.
dugg.
I would like an invite as well! If you have one, please send to dissonance@gmail.com
Thanks!
excellent tool, something much needed. I’m very curious to see how it stands up to all the platforms, I’ve only been on it a few days now.
Another one of your story on digg in less then 24hours? :)
Congratulation my friend, Major traffic for you.

Yeah 20000 so far today and i think i still have one story on the front page!
Damn…any more invites ???
this seems really cool, I’d love an invite.
I’d like an invite if any has an extra: jack@dtheatre.com
thanks.
I wish i could test it, this looking really great.
I would like an invite if anyone has one to spare.

Very sweet! Ummm… I’d like a invite code… Please send to info@theblacklantern.com
Would like an invite too if anyone can get me one: cmaxmagee@gmail.com
thanks so much
you need to install cocomment-promo.php and promote coComment in your comment form: http://andreib.com/blog/2006/02/cocomment-promo
I am using coComment too. I really like it and am looking forward to new features. I can see this being one of the next big Web 2.0 applications!!
This is a cocomment test
great concept. clean converation tracking is the single biggest missing “feature” of blogging. However, I hope they implement something better than the bookmarklet. That seems like an ugly usability problem. A wordpress/MT/etc. plugin would be a nice solution instead.
if there is a spare invite, count me in. I have been interested in this sort of application for a very long time now. johnmulholland@fastmail.fm
Needs digg.com support.
A rush of traffic/users from digg.com isn’t nessecaraly a good thing. Too much traffic can put too much pressure on the developers. The forums, with all those bugs, exploded overnight right in front of my eyes.
What the FUCK. I can’t comment on a whole bunch of blogs all of a sudden… but my comment shows up on coco. Is this post moderated or somthing?
Dugg :)
I dig it. Test. Test.
would someone kindly give me an invite
Dude, You DON’t Need an invite to register. All that you have to do is simply give them your email address and they’ll mail you an invite themself, free!
sign me up, toby2punk@gmail.com
Hey if theres an invite available I’d appreciate it! logosmonkey(at)gmail(dot)com
p.s.
dugg
Logosmonkey & Toby, please read my comment above, you donot Need an invite..
Man, I’m getting jumpy!
I think any blog with swearing in it gets automatically maoderated, and i didnt get round to moderating until this morning.
Can someone send me an invite code please: mrd3sai [at] gmail [dot] com
Thanks in advance!
I’ve downloaded the greasemonkey script, but how can I use it? I double-click it and it shows an ‘error’.
Drhaisook – you don’t need to click anything. install the script, restart Firefox, and return here. You should see your coComment name automatically appear by the submit button.
Hi. Would somebody give me a cocomemnt invitation code? Thanks.
For an invitation, your best bet is to ask laurent, the creator of coco, you’ll find him on his site here:

I agree with Andrei. Too much popularity too soon for a service which wasn’t really supposed to go live yet is not necessarily good. I see more and more negative comments all over the place about how it’s not up to speed yet, lacks this or that essential feature, etc… What do you expect of a product which is (was?) supposed to be in “closed beta”, ie tested by a limited amount of people?
Tolerance and patience, people. CoComment isn’t something you want to kill by telling it “it’s now or never, if you don’t work perfectly right now you really suck”.
just testing out a cocomment firefox extension… let see if it works
Testing cocomment
I am playing with coComment tonight (took me a couple of days to make time).
I am interested to see if it will track comments from non-cocomment users too. I could see this being possible for systems like wordpress that publish comment feeds.
Does it work Andrezw?
Users of Cocomment can now invite people!
This is way cool. The more people using this the better!
Molly
Steph, that’s a good point. It just bursted like a boom and coCo is unable to handle the immense number.
has cocomment been down the last day? i can’t seem to access their website..
Quite possibly, i havnt been able to cocomment my own blog for about a week now, something is a little weird with them, hope they sort out the problems soon
