The Quarter Hug

I can't get all of my current comments uploaded onto the Js-Kit platform, or else I would definitely switch over to it.

Tech Support is pretty good, but so far not good enough

I'll keep trying tho!

Hi Kristen,

Monetization & SEO

For most blogs JS-Kit services are free and contain no advertising. For commercial sites that use our widgets we place advertising within the service and share the revenue 50/50 or charge a nominal ASP fee to remove the ads.

JS-Kit is not a destination site all traffic & SEO point to the blog.

Be Well,

Khris Loux, JS-Kit

monetization is always an issue, yes, but js-kit is actually seeking to ensure that the commenters retain ownership of their comments across the web.

Would this effect search engine optimization that people do to try to use comments as a way to build relevance on their page. I know there is a cool social aspect to all of this, and I would love to be able to track my comments better but I don't know if I like duplication of content, and there is always the issue of who owns comments and how services like this would monetize (ads around my comments wouldn't make me too happy).

After Twitter and Plurk Web comment-aggregation might become the next social media hype.

This is really cool, I've been looking for an application to do this for some time.

If you post a lot of comments its really difficult to keep track of the ongoing conversation, plus very often you'd love to see the other comments made by someone across the web

It would appear that JS-Kit has effectively wrapped up the comment venue with this integration. The idea of a portable "passport" transporting user data and links is very interesting too.
Ggreat post Kristen!

Cool, a passport to the Web!

Interesting concept. If only I commented more on blogs, I could end up with a microblog like Jack Johnson Ticket guy. I'll keep it in mind for the future.

This is probably the most advanced platform I've ever seen and the idea is great. Of course, I am aware that JS-kit is not the first, but their system certainly beats everything else I know. I see the widget has ads by google integrated - I wonder who gets the revenue. Is it JS-kit or would it be a split share type of monetization between JS-kit and the user whose profile is displayed? Or is the publisher using the widget going to have a share?
