Comments. Comments on blogs, product
reviews (they are just specialized comments on a product),
articles...
What would help:
Let me come back
- Have subscription buttons for blog comments so I can leave a
comment and see when someone posts after me.
- Let me bookmark particularly good comments - not just the
article, but the comment
More user information
- Some comment systems allow for a URL for the commentor. Why
just 1? Why not their delicious tags & flickr photos & blog
&...
Or, maybe we need a single united URL that contains various link
for people. Sure this could be done by each person on their website
- but it isn't and the bar should be lower.
- More types of comments: audio & video as well as text &
links.
Integration across sites
- Integration blog comments & twitter
(So I can tweet comments or get responses via twitter)
Or integration across multiple websites in general
- To take it a step further: why can't I take any piece of
information on the web or my computer or other peoples' computer
and hook it to a notification system.
-And- such a system should know where I am (so how to contact me:
SMS text message, tweet, email)
-And- the system should have smart filtering: so it can help in
the signal to noise ratio
- When a co-worker modifies a document that we're working on,
text my mobile or email me
- When one of my favorite writers writes a new article or blog
post, scan the text and notify me if I'll be interested in the
content
