Yes, I’d love it if there was a way to aggregate a twitter conversation stemming from a “tweet” button or giving a link, or the equivalents from other social media, into one or more comments that could be edited and attached to an article in the same way as any other comment. But there are some herculean obstacles to be overcome before anything even remotely resembling that would become possible.

I noticed the same thing. Last week I mentioned our article on a couple Google+ communities. We got a lot of traffic and a lot of comments, but the comments were all tied to my original post on those G+ communities. Going to have to change stratigies a bit, at least until the tech allows all comments from any source to be linked I suppose!

Good to know, thanks Mike. I was wondering how that worked with the Carnival.

As for your article on the state of blogging, it made me realize I wasn’t going crazy thinking what I was thinking!

One correction, Samuel: the Blog Carnival is still run through the RPG Blog Alliance, but administration of the Carnival has been handed on to Roleplaying Tips.

I’m glad my article has helped understand the state of RPG Blogging that you have now entered; a lot of the changes happened gradually, and went largely unnoticed at the time. It was written to identify and try to put into perspective those changes, to understand how they happened and what the implications were. I don’t know if they changed anything for anyone, but at least it spelt out in Black and White what I saw happening.
