		<description>Chris, I&#039;ll check out that article you mentioned.  Isn&#039;t it great how nearly all social networking tools have a widget or banner to add to your blog?  Like you said, some are already available on WordPress.com or Blogger.  Making it simple for many to bring their Twitter, FriendFeed, Seesmic, Facebook, Plaxo, and many other networking sources to their own personal space.

I&#039;ll be happy to give feedback!  Thanks,
Rick</description>

		<description>Blogging is the basis of all social networking and marketing and you hit it right on the head. Even with all the social networks out there the blog is still your hub.

I predict in fact that Wordpress or another blogging platform will glue all the social networks together with your friends, forums and social interaction all occuring thru your blog interface and running on your server.

You may be interested in this as well, I just published an article on Digg, the privacy breach at Digg and how it effects your search engine rankings.  http://www.keywebdata.com/?p=79

I have very detailed documentation but Digg has yet to address it.

In looking at your content I would like to know what you think either here on your blog, in my comments or feel free to email me. = Chris Lang</description>

		<description>That&#039;s a great point Joanna, commenting is so important for feedback and adding to the conversation.  It&#039;s what makes blogs &quot;social&quot; to begin with.</description>

		<description>Thanks for the reminder Rick.  For me it all circles around the blog - feeds in and out of that.  My blog is my home, my cornerstone, the best expression of what I&#039;m about that I&#039;ve managed yet.  

And I hope we don&#039;t forget to comment too!  Each and every blog is potentially a social medium in its own right.
