Joi Ito: At some point, these "places" became public places and I ended up becoming a custodian. It's like having people come over to your place to party leaving you to clean up the mess. I lost control of the community, but not the responsibility. If it was called "Joi Ito's list" I think people wouldn't have come into the discussion thinking that it was a public place.
Like Joi, I wish people would use trackback more and comments less.
I wonder if trackbacks will ever be a part of RSS. I thought RSS was supposed to be exposing metadata to the world. Aren’t trackbacks metadata? Everyone raves about how Sharpreader threads posts. Well, should this be just a “feature” of a news aggregator, or should it part of the syndication. I also think in Sam’s case, having trackbacks in RSS would eliminate the need for comments all together.
Though google trackbacks would need to be filtered out.
