In Wordpress, there's a button called "my comments" that allows you to see responses to any comments you've made on other Wordpress blogs. As far as I know, you need to come back to the website to check in for additional comments if you don't have a wordpress blog, which is what I do. If I find out another way, I'll post it here.
