I agree, Entrecard really came up with something new, which is helping a lot of new blogs and bloggers.

Explorer
Entrecard is especially powerful for launching new blogs, as you can ramp up the traffic stats at a previously unheard of rate.

Azlan
Entrecard does seem to be trying to cover every angle. ;-)

Amy Lilley
I haven’t found I’m getting more spam… yet, anyway. The initial flourish of extra comments has now settled down a bit, and I’m gonna be monitoring its effectiveness over time.

Jennie Up The Hill
I still haven’t sorted out the double-avatar thing going on here - I’m the world’s most proficient procrastinator! :lol:

Mikey777
Don’t leave the hat off too long, cos it’s a mighty fine one and looks best on yer head! :lol:

Atniz

BCarter

Sheila Sultani
I’m doing the ‘wait and see’ thing with the new Entrecard Toolbar, as I have some recent new concerns about viruses being transmitted via dropping on EC sites.

Majik
I agree that the partnership makes Entrecard more of a complete package, after all, one doesn’t have to install and use SezWho.

As well as the increase in traffic to one’s blog, there is the enjoyment of visiting sites you may never have encountered otherwise.

I found you through my bloglog and that's how I learned about the partnership w/ Ec & Sezwho. I'm still on the fence about this I don't see how this will encourage those who don't comment in the first place to start commenting now. No doubt it will make those of us who already comment make more lengthy comments. For some reason a rating system just turns me off when it comes to commenting. Thanks, I'll be doing a post on this and play a little devils advocate with some of my concerns. lol <em>jj-momscashblog's last blog post..<a href='http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/MomsCashBlog/~3/339403006/' rel="nofollow">How to Write Ads That Sell — Part II</a></em> Hi Laney, Thanks for writing about this.

I get to visit other blogs that I would never have found on my own. At the same time, they reciprocate. I'm sure the same thing will happen with comments via SezWho. :) Cheers <em>Avatar's last blog post..<a href='http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/WonderWealthWisdom/~3/340987016/way-of-general-part-iii.html' rel="nofollow">The Way of the General - Part III</a></em> I find EntreCard to be very useful.

Although I have had about 4 extra comments this week. I think this move has changed Entrecard for the better. It moves Entrecard to more of a social media site than just an advertising network. Kudos to the team at Entrecard. <em>Majik's last blog post..<a href='http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/MajiksThoughts/~3/339581835/advantage-in-worldwide-rental-cars.html' rel="nofollow">Advantage In Worldwide Rental Cars</a></em> I haven’t seen a dramatic increase in comments since I’ve added SezWho to my blog.

I'm not sure if I see the connection between Sez-Who and spam. In fact, I think spam has decreased since I installed Sez-Who. Of course, my spam comes in bursts. One day I get 20 the next day 0. I really need to look into how to install Askimet. The whole API idea has made me hesitant. <em>Bcarter's last blog post..<a href='http://downonourluck.com/webhost-transfer-is-now-complete/' rel="nofollow">Webhost transfer is now complete</a></em> So far, comments on my blogs have increased when I have time to drop Entrecards during the day.

So far, SezWho is very limited as to the blogging platforms it supports. My big criticism is that I really don't like the idea of commentators ranking each other's comments. I think SezWho should automatically rank them somehow. Or maybe leave it up to the blog's author. Anyway, it has potential to be a useful tool...for those of you who can use it on your blogs. <em>Carol's last blog post..<a href='http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/typepad/kwdR/~3/339831728/note-of-thanks.html' rel="nofollow">A Note of Thanks</a></em> I’m looking forward to the development of a plugin for TypePad.
