Interesting discussion

In the comments for that last post we’ve been discussing the possibility of adding the comment link into the RSS feed item, so that you could click a link in your aggregator to leave a comment and skip the whole “Going to the site” thing.

Andrew first suggested it, and then he went and figured out how to do it in MT. Pretty impressive.

I played around with Blogger and while I could get an absolute link to the comments, I don’t think Blogger supports adding things inside the XML “item” tags. At least my efforts to move the comments link all wound up with it outside the tag and thus, not part of the feed.
