CoComment.com has been acquired by JS-Kit.com, a much smaller funded company than CoComment.com (I would assume they ran out of money). I was never clear on CoComment’s offering, do you? Now, there is a new one call BackType.com (how do you monetize?).
alarm:clock reports it (here)
… comment aggregator CoComment is being acquired by JS-Kit, the rising force in blog commenting world. While terms of the deal have yet to be announced, there has to be more stock than dollars being exchanged as JS-Kit only raised $3.6m in a Series B round last month.
… we don’t think the company was even close to making serious coin

Do you have reliable source for it ? (except for this post on alarm clock). And did you check it ?
I cannot see any official PR, article, ……
Is this information, or just some sort of spamming just to post something ?
Sorry, but I do not get the point in just posting based one someone else post. So I hope you are going to tell more about how you are so sure about this before you publish.
So you were wrong apparently. Having reliable sources OR posting with a bit of doubt until things are proved is a must for any publisher.
Good buy …..
