BackType
New site: BackType. It tries to aggregate and make searchable all the comments in the blogosphere (now there's a rich data set!). TechCrunch calls it "a Twitter for comments."
SYSTEM ALERT!
The next several weeks of Fimoculous are going to feature some of my favorite bloggers and link-makers as guest editors. Blogging right now is Drew Grant. Quick bio: Sex blogger by day, media reporter by nights and weekends. Turn-ons: media, the media, new york media, guys that work in new york media, comedy. Turn-offs: Sincerity.

For a good time, call up a search for "krucoff" and then one for "fek". It's positively ... shoot, I guess I can't call it Caesarean, now can I? Or can I?
Anyway, I have to admit - this really does make me aware of the whole "owning what you write" - it's like finding nerdy letters you wrote in seventh grade, kind of the "I said that?" feeling. Also, various sites draw varying voices.
What comments systems/programs does it feed from? Cool concept.
