Skribit is a new blogging widget which allows your readers to comment on your content. Like other widgets of this genre, you load Skribit onto your blog to allow your site's visitors to submit suggestions. In the case of Skribit, users in turn can vote on these suggestions via the "What's Hoppin" button. On the Skribit site itself, you'll be able to see a list of the lastest comments made across the network of blogs which are using the Skribit widget; more specifically, you can see popular suggestions and the most recent suggestions, along with a list of which sites have recently installed the widget. Currently, Skribit is operating in private beta, so the widget is not yet available to the general public. However, you can contact the site to be notified of its official public release date.

| Just a point of clarification. While there is more to it, Skribit was built to provide an easy way for bloggers to receive suggestions from their readers. Readers can then vote on suggested topics to provide an idea to the blogger on how much inherent interest there is in a certain topic before they write the post. While I suppose that it could be a specialized commenting tool, if think about it as a suggestion tool it becomes a little more interesting. | ||
