"I think the secret to successfully integrating tweets into the comments section of blogs is doing just that — finding the tweets that actually have substance. Using BackType (or BackTweets) you quickly see that most (re)tweets for blog posts just contain a post title and shortened URL. GigaOM recently did something interesting where they only display tweets containing a special hashtag that's assigned to each post. It's a nice way to separate the links and RTs from actual commentary." - Christopher Golda

"Thanks for the feedback, Corvida. We're definitely working to improve the scale of properties and platforms we support (including Echo). We currently support hundreds of thousands of properties, including Digg, Reddit, FriendFeed, and more. We'll be making some updates to BackType Search that will help surface better conversation on any given topic, rather than every single mention (which is what we do now)" - Christopher Golda

"You probably claimed URLs that don't belong to you, or subscribed to pages you didn't want to receive update e-mails for. If you'd like to stop receiving subscription e-mails, you can remove them at: http://www.backtype.com/home..." - Christopher Golda

"Thanks for the write up, Ben. If you get the chance, change the tweetcount_url in the widget you posted from our BackType Connect blog post to our Tweetcount blog post: tweetcount_url = 'http://blog.backtype.com/2009...';" - Christopher Golda

"All the above ;) My favorites were the '96 Krug and '02 Screaming Eagle" - Christopher Golda
