My good friend Brian wrote me today in response to the call for comments I put out a few days ago. This is what he had to say:
How about this for an idea: Set this up so that replies can be made to individual entries, instead of a general guestbook-type comment area. That might encourage more discussion about a given topic. As it is now, the guestbook seems to be reserved more for those making “Love the site, keep up the good work”-type comments. You could keep the guestbook for people dropping in to say hi and comment on the site in general, but set up threads for commenting on individual entries.
Well Brian, you’re in luck. We have just implemented a comment tag where you can submit whatever your thoughts are for a particular post. I’m not sure if we’ll make it retro-active, but it will be a feature for all new entries anyway.
