When you don’t care about the discussions being in the public record the comments don’t necessarily need to be integrated in the blog.

I have my email on my personal site and when an article reaches the frontpage on HN I usually get some emails related to the post.

Same.

I don’t want my website to be a distribution channel. The last thing I want is to be managing visitors to my home.

I’ll let the distributors do their thing to pass my content around and I’ll own/manage my own content on my homepage.
