That's one of the dirty little secrets of blogging: the discussion in the comments are often better than the original entry. - Jeff Atwood

Hey Ram, I agree with you...Many times,we have good discussion in the comments but sometimes,it gets dirty as well. For eg. when I wrote a post on an Indian retail site,different retailers started fighting on the comments and the best part was that I was completely out of all that :)
Agreed. The maturity levels vary. I would say that you have to hunt much harder on Indian sites to find real gems than on, say American sites. The key reason is the lack of internet penetration and comfort level with the net based discussion forums, which keeps out lots of clued in people from weighing in
