Wouldn't this risk changing that?
- danmaz74 14y agoProbably not, unless your blog has an organic audience that is bigger (or at least comparable) than that of HN homepage...
- nathancahill 14y agoBlogs this big are unlikely to implement a third-party (and unsupported) discussion feed.
- ooobo 14y agoI would see that eventuating if this allowed commenting via the embedding blog, thankfully it doesn't. I don't have the same issue with this that others do, but I remember TheNextWeb getting a bit of slack from commenters for embedding HN comments (although that was mixed amongst other comment platforms, and is a little different) API-wise, http://api.ihackernews.com/ http://api.ihackernews.com/ , http://hndroidapi.appspot.com/ http://hndroidapi.appspot.com/ or http://www.hnsearch.com/api http://www.hnsearch.com/api didn't suit? [edit] what am I thinking, an API doesn't need an API... Oh, and simplicity of this seems pretty nice!
