Another Comment Feed Hack

Skill Level

You need only to be able to configure the email notification feature in Blogger, and also create a Google Group.

Description

This hack allows you to gather your comments and publish them in a purpose-created Google Group. Readers can subscribe to this group (via RSS feed or email), or you can import the feed of comments into your existing blogs.

Method

1. Setup a new Google Group to hold your comments, e.g. MyGroup.
2. For your existing blogs, configure comment notification emails to forward comments to this new Google Group's email address, e.g. MyGroup@googlegroups.com.
3. Using the Atom feed or RSS feed of the new group, publish the feed in your existing blogs with any of the RSS-to-Javascript services.
