To make a link in a comment user the [text](url) syntax. (And, of course, you can use simply bare URL - but I assume you want something nicer.) The same syntax is possible in posts. (Although in posts there are other possibilities how to use links. Moreover, when composing or editing a post, you can insert a link using the built-in editor.)

For example, the following syntax works both in a post and in comments:

Link to a question on meta: [Hyperlink in a comment?](https://meta.mathoverflow.net/q/5410) This looks probably slightly better than a bare URL: https://meta.mathoverflow.net/q/5410

Link to a question on meta: Hyperlink in a comment? This looks probably slightly better than a bare URL: Hyperlink in a comment?

In the first comment under this post you can see how this looks in a comment.
