Some more ideas on "Alert me for followup threads".
- Here's your weekly list of people, and their blogs, who posted on topics like the ones upon which you commented.
- Based on our internal Googler of the original post and the other comments in the thread, you might be very interested in these other posts on this weblog and these other weblogs.
- There are more than 5 posts after yours in this thread; click here to see them.
- Here's a consolidated follow-up list for all the comments you made this month across all the weblogs we serve.

Dave asks:
Here's a feature request cast into the wind, not for anyone in particular. When I post a comment on weblog, as I do more often these days, I'd like to be notified when someone else posts to the same item, or perhaps the same weblog. It would automate something I do manually now. It would require a lot of cooperation to make such a feature work. [Scripting News]
It's a good idea. How would you like to be notified? Email seems kind of clunky. It would be nice if my 2WayApp (see my comment and others) could either pop up a notification or -- even less obtrusive -- keep a running list of responses on comment threads that I've participated in.
Email notification actually wouldn't be that difficult to implement. There are comment posting systems that do this already. But they're annoying. The second method involves creating some infrastructure to deal with this and (like Dave says) requires a fair amount of cooperation and coordination.
