If the point is to have a productive conversation, then comments aren't the best choice as they're mostly monologues rather than a real dialogue. By reading (via RSS, trackback, etc.) other blogs, doing some thinking, and posting afterwards, our conversation will be much a more productive conversation than what is seen in comment sections. My guess is that the comment section is more for socializing, which is fine if that's the main purpose. But to limit blogs to one form of conversation seems rather limited, don't you think?

No disagreement. Nature of a startup: some things get onto the boat at launch, others hitch the next ride. RSS was one of the last features to get delayed until a later release; it’s coming. I had subscribed to various of the test feeds and got addicted quickly, so I, too, am eager for them to come out. Interactivity is an interesting question for a platform: Is the use of the platform on sites everywhere a rich form of interactivity itself? What is the best form of interactivity on the site: comments or contributions? (This is a corollary to Arrington’s question the other day about whether a blog is a blog without comments…. My own answer is that a blog is a blog if it is involved in a conversation via links or comments.) So I don’t think the answer about interactivity is necessarily as obvious as it may at first appear. But the bottom line of a beta remains: There are lots of good things in the pipeline but at some point, you need to get the platform and product out so people can use it and show you what it can and should be. That’s where Daylife is today. So all this feedback and more is incredibly valuable. And that will be even truer as the full API is released and other sites show us what they want and need and what they can invent around the data Daylife provides.

Avevo una bella idea di post da scrivere, per commentare questo sondaggio di Michael Arrington su Techcrunch. Ora vedo che Marco Montemagno scrive su Sky Tg24 una bella panoramica sulla questione con cui mi trovo d’accordo. Io sono ancora un po’ timida nel dispensare commenti, ma sono comunque un’importantissima risorsa per un blog. Qualche giorno fa ho fatto la mia brava votazione e mi sono schierata nella posizione più estrema (no comments? no blog!) ma ammetto un margine di errore. Per me, il fatto più rilevante è che i commenti abilitano, offrono la potenzialità di completare, controbattere, segnalare. Ovviamente, tutte queste azioni di approfondimento possono essere svolte anche attraverso il trackback, per dirne una. Ma se pensiamo a un feedback semplice a cui può accedere anche il meno scaltro dei lettori occasionali e senza blog, per me i commenti restano la migliore rete di sicurezza. Abilitare l’utente a esprimersi è solo un primo passo, vero, e i commenti vanno letti e coltivati: si tratta di un’occasione, basta scegliere se coglierla, oppure no. Alla base di questi discorsi il mio approccio è comunque molto aperto alle impronte personali dei blogger padroni di casa, solo che si cerca di capire quali siano le opportunità da non perdere.
