I understand you want people to post on your blog so your updates link to thier comment. However, if it's your blog and you are the one posting to another site it seems rude to request people post comments on your site when you can just read the comments here.

So, how about posting updates with a link to the HN comment.

PS: Granted, this could just be me.

I'll watch for both, but it's easier for me to reference the comments on the blog post itself. Some readers may never have heard of HN, so it might be slightly confusing to say "This came from so-and-so at HN"

I just thought that people here at HN would probably have some really good ideas, so I submitted it.

I get that and I liked the post. However, I have seen plenty of blog posts that used this to link to posts on other sites and it seems to work well.

You might also use the posts here as an opportunity to create a follow up blog post that contains the suggestions from here. Provided you get enough suggestions :)
