Commenting

One of the more interesting parts about blogging is receiving feedback from readers. In order to leave a comment on a blog entry, click the link at the bottom of the entry that says '0 comments' (or whatever the number is). That brings up a comment box.

Type in your comments. Then below, it will tell you to choose an identity. For this, there are three choices.

You can create a blogger account just to leave comments.

You can click on the box that says other. It will then prompt you for your name (and webpage if you have one).

You can leave an anonymous comment.

I personally don't recommend anonymous comments because the exchange of ideas is much of what makes blogging an intellectually useful exercise. I can't have an exchange with no one.

If you don't have a blogger account, please just click on other and leave at least your name (even just a first name).

I reserve the right to delete gratituitously offensive or obnoxious comments, though I have yet to do so.
