HotForWords' Marina Orlova and outrageous radio host, Danny Bonaduce, are using coComment to bring edge and flirtation to online commenting SAN FRANCISCO, June 11
SAN FRANCISCO, June 11 /PRNewswire/ -- coComment, the leading platform for
managing, powering and researching conversations online, today announced they
signed endorsement partnerships with the flirtatious philologist Marina from
HotForWords and outspoken Danny Bonaduce, child actor and famed host of 97.1
Free FM in Los Angeles.
The pair will be using coComment to keep track of their numerous comments
across the web and to provide an easy way for their audiences to follow them
wherever they go.
The mix leverages the true draw from each celebrity's niche. Fans will be
able to track Marina's unique etymology comments and tune in to Danny's
outrageous opinions in an effort to not miss their participation across the
web and to keep the great conversations rolling. coComment is offering fans
of the more traditional video and radio mediums a window into online
conversations anywhere and in any fashion, while liberating dialogues of all
topics on the web.
"It's easy to see what someone says on their own site but that really
misses all their activity elsewhere. We're going to help them show their fans
everything they have to say," said Matt Colebourne, CEO of coComment. "I think
this initiative will bring these great and controversial conversations to more
people on the web, further expanding their fan base and their ability to share
their content with the online world."
coComment allows users to track their conversations, others'
conversations, site and topic specific conversations and to consolidate and
reuse them as they see fit. The company gives users a platform for tracking
subjects, responses and conversations all in one place, and allows publishers
the opportunity to engage their users with more impact. The technology brings
more content to more people, expanding conversations and propagating content
for the benefit of both users and publishers -- regardless of medium.
"Integrate: comes from the Latin word integratus and means to bring
together or incorporate into a whole," expressed Marina. "coComment will
allow me to expand my education techniques to even more people and allow me to
increase the proper use of the English language."
"It's worth it all to me just to be in the same sentence as the sexy
wordsmith, Marina," commented Danny. "Using coComment will essentially let me
give 'the bird' to anyone who wants to censor me or any of my fans and lets me
take my views to people all over the world."
Matt added that, "coComment is all about creating flexibility and freedom
on the web. We look forward to implementing a campaign that will broaden and
challenge these capabilities."
