Press Release Summary:
Over 17 million conversations on coComment signal the rise of the commenter


Press Release Body: SAN FRANCISCO, CA - July 1, 2008, 12.01am PST - coComment
(www.cocomment.com), the leading platform for managing, powering and researching
conversations online, today released major features that it has developed in
association with its worldwide community of over 1.3 million users. With over 17.7
million conversations from over 270,000 sites, coComment is the largest community of
people actively engaged in online conversations which increase and enliven content
across all subjects.

coComment's community-inspired new features include ranking and rating of comments
by user and by tag to make it easy to find specific conversations or people. This
enables the best conversations, rather than simply the most prolific, to become much
more visible and accessible.

With the added features users can now:
. Qualify comments based on the reputation of the commenter
. Target and analyze specific users and conversations
. Provide a feedback loop for commenters, publishers and bloggers

"We engaged our users, who are the largest population of active commenters in the
world, and they told us that their comments were a fundamental part of their online
personality. They wanted features that would enable them to place value on comments
and commenters, and respond to and monitor comments in the moment," commented Matt
Colebourne, CEO of coComment. "We're delighted with this response and dedicate this
new release to all those community members who have provided such great feedback and
support to us. We at coComment hope that these enhancements encourage even more
people to join in the online conversation."
