Embeddable Comments for ExpressionEngine

My friends at A List Apart recently launched a site redesign and as part of the new ALA they added embeddable comments. Embeddable comments? Yes. It’s like embedded tweets but for comments.

Here’s a blog post on ALA as an example. Scroll down to the comments and see the small Embed buttons. Click it and you get a code snippet that lets you embed the comment elsewhere, like this:

Terrific article. Your assessment of UCD’s ignorance to business realities is often one of its most frustrating aspects. As a business manager, I’m trying to bridge the gap between those realities and what I want to accomplish (a usable design). Thanks.
