My portal has a blog module and forum module, and I would like to centralize all of the comments and discussions to the forums.  This means disabling blog comments, but I would still like a convenient way for users that want to respond to a blog to start a discussion on the forum regarding the blog entry.  

Has anyone done this?  Is it just too involved to tackle in a short time, or is there a not-so-complicated means of achieving this? Is it possible to generate dynamic links at the bottom of each blog entry "Comment on this blog entry" that would link to a particular forum topic (not just to the forum landing page)? How could I auto-create a forum topic whenever a new blog entry is posted (change a stored procedure or code it into the blog module)?

I have the DNN forum module but I am also evaluating ActiveModules' ActiveForums.

AFAIK this requires major changes in the module - I suggest having a look into 3rd party solutions, e.g. vivo social on codeplex seems to have centralized comments and feedback according to the description (haven't tried it myself).
