Thanks for your comments and suggestions guys. I will definitely look into pingbacks/trackbacks. The other thing I was considering is having an option on the submit form, which would allow the submitter to specify a preference for where comments should go. These options would be something like “on muti” and “on authors blog”. If the submitter chose “on authours blog” then they would have to supply a url to the comments section for that item on the target blog. The comments url on muti would then take you to the bloggers site, and also display the number of comments from the site.
Obviously this option would only be relevant for blog item submissions.

Any comments on that idea?

I hadn’t thought of that Andre, but that could be useful. It would make Muti much more of a nucleus for conversations, that’s for sure.

You’re absolutely right that the trackback spam could become a real issue though.

Let’s see what Neville thinks about it.

Sounds like a good idea, why not include a system autimatically sending pings/trackbacks? won’t solve all the concerns, then there is also the concerns of spam and gaming…
