How can I get Friendfeed to pick up my blog commenting?

I am getting completely into the Friendfeed phenomenon, so much so that I am wondering what other features I can roll into it. I am not one for revealing my entire life, warts and all, but I can see the value of having my online life in the one place. It is such a great productivity booster and a great place to network with other people. If I have a question or a gripe then all I have to do is type it into Twitter or directly into Friendfeed and right away, it gets picked up by people and discussed. You can generate a RSS feed to stay on top of replies as well. The potential of Friendfeed is just downright amazing - and it just keeps getting better and better.
The other day I found out that I can generate a RSS feed for my iTunes purchases and thereby roll them into Friendfeed. I don’t have a problem with people knowing what music I listen to so I duly made the feed and added it to my Friendfeed page. But I am becoming acutely aware that there are some services that do NOT have RSS feeds and this, to me, is unacceptable, in this day and age of the internet.
One of the areas where RSS feeds is not really offered that much is when you leave comments on blogs. Most blog commenting areas have “no follow” tags therefore you can’t really set up Google Alerts either and get a RSS feed that way. This irritates me to no end because I do a lot of commenting on blogs and I would love to have all of that come together and collected on Friendfeed where it can be commented upon by others and discussed, thereby keeping the conversation going. But with a no follow tag (meaning it doesn’t get indexed in search engines) and no RSS feed, how can I get it onto Friendfeed?
Any suggestions?
