Seesmic Moves Into Drupal with API Access

Video messageboard and now blog commenting service Seesmic has now taken up residence inside the Drupal content management system (CMS). Unfortunately it's not a blog plugin like those fine folks using Wordpress have, it's just an API module hook. So basically what this means is that you can tie Seesmic into other modules on Drupal but you can't use this as a stand-alone module to add the Seesmic functionality. They note that the full video comment functionality is coming soon to Drupal. I will report back once I have a chance to test the full functionality.

I believe Viddler's video comment system has a Drupal option but their servers are down so I can't verify.

Check out our prior Seesmic coverage including our reasoning as to why Seesmic won't work. Though I will admit that Loic has some amazing connections that could put the product over the top. I do notice that the Seesmic video comments plugin provides Seesmic with some really juicy SEO with the way the links are setup. This could help Seesmic gain ground in the all important video discovery arena.
