Danny,

I recommend that you join the Blog Engage community over at blogengage.com

The bloggers will comment on your posts, comment on the post listing at blog engage AND tweet you and retweet you until….

Since I joined last month, I’ve received a constant stream of valuable comments and interesting exchanging of information. Let me know if you need any assistance.

Thanks for sharing.

I'm glad you shared your plugin as I am looking for a solution where I can tweetback not just the blog, but the comment I made on the blog to my twitter followers. I will check out Posterous as suggested by Danny Brown!

Thanks for the complement! I still think that encouraging comments from other 'twitterers is never a bad thing. Lead by example, One way to do that is to make a comment, THEN tweet out the blog post. If someone sees you comment, they may be inspired to do so as well.

The other reason I like to encourage blog comments, is that it offers a way to deepen the conversation/discussion/exploration of an issue much more than can be done in 140 characters on Twitter.
