Some time back, I set up the Friendfeed app within Facebook so that my Twitter comments and blog posts all appear within my Facebook news feed. I now find that the conversation is shifting
People who would not previously have commented on my posts, who may indeed not even have been aware of them, have begun to participate in the conversation. However, they respond to the Friendfeed notification on my Facebook page rather than here.
Ironically, this tool which allowed me to unify my various communication streams has also fragmented it. People who comment in one space, don't get to see the comments of those who do so in the other.
I'm not really going anywhere with this observation. Just sharing. I'll be interested to see if it resolves in any way, or if I'll continue to be piggy in the middle of two conversations on the same blog post or tweet.
Hmm.

Where the conversation now takes place...

This is an interesting point for discussion, only, if it's being discussed, I am not privy to to the previous thread.
A similar discussion arose last year, initiated by Michele Martin, who brought forward the idea that discussion should only be done through blog posts and not by the usual comments against a post.
For me, it posed the same problem(s) as you allude to here.
Catchya later
