One of the Boulder TechStars companies we selected as a finalist for the IQ Innovations Awards this year was Intense Debate, which had developed some very nifty systems to create community among commenters on blogs, news sites, etc.
Intense Debate just announced it has been acquired by Automattic, a startup from the same people who brough us WordPress. I've met a few times with Intense Debate CEO Tom Keller, as we discussed some ways his company might move forward with traditional print media. With the Automattic deal, it will be interesting to see if Intense Debate now gets larger primarily through bloggers and other Web social media or if traditional print also is worked into the business model.
I've used Intense Debate on my blog, and although use has been somewhat limited due primarily to my small world of readers, I've always thought this Boulder startup had some great potential. Congrats to the Intense Debate team! Also happy to read that Intense Debate will still be available on Typepad, my blog home.
I certainly enjoyed the way you explore your experience and
knowledge of the subject! Keep up on it. Thanks for sharing the info
