    Kent – what a great idea to include this post! I assume it is a plugin of some sort that you use to autogenerate this daily? Please tell us how to do it – I think it could really help with sustaining cross-blog conversations!

    There are two ways to do it that I know of. The first, which is what appears in this post, is to bookmark your comments on other blogs via Delicious, with a particular tag. I use “mycomments.” If you use Firefox, the Delicious extension makes this very easy to do.Then you simply use the Delicious linkroll feature (be sure to check “only these tags” at the bottom and fill in the tag you use.After you get the linkroll looking the way you want it to, simply drop the code into the body of your post and you’re done.The other way, which I use on this page is to take your Delicious page (mine is here) and run it through RSS-to-JavaScript.Com.There may be a better way to do it (and I welcome ideas from others), but that’s how I do it.

    But one thing I just discovered is that, at least on my blog, the links don’t show up in my RSS feed. Back to the drawing board.My current thinking is just to add these links in the left hand column:My Comments ElsewhereRecent Inbound Links
