Comment

Webster's Dictionary defines a comment as an observation or remark expressing an opinion or attitude. So far not very many people have taken advantage of the comment feature on this blog. I think commenting is an excellent way for readers to share what they've liked so far, ask a question, or ask for clarification and more detail. It even allows for complaints, though all complaints will be promptly deleted.

Not sure how to leave a comment? Well don't worry. I'm going to explain how to do that right now.

***Update: Just switched settings so anyone can comment without signing in. If you want, instead of clicking Google Account just click Name/URL and type in a name.***
  1. Click on the word comments at the bottom of each blog post. The page will refresh and a word box should appear.
  2. Type your message in the word box. Please try to avoid using any obscenities.
  3. Under the word box it will say "comment as:" followed by a box with a down arrow. Click on the arrow and a list of options will appear. Click on the first option, Google Account.
  4. You will be redirected to a new page. If you have a Gmail, Picasa, Blogger, or another Google username then sign in at the sign-in boxes on the right of the page. If not then click on the "Create an account now" link below the sign-in boxes. Don't worry it's a real short process.
  5. On the next page simply provide any email address that you already use and a password. Also put whatever name you want to appear with your comment in "display name".
  6. Then it will take you back to the blog for a preview of your post. Complete the annoying word verification thing and click Post Comment.
  7. Your comment should now appear under the blog post. You can now click on "subscribe by email" to the right of the post comment button. This will send you an email if someone else comments on the same post you did.
Well I hope that wasn't too complicated. Also, you can see other peoples comments at any time just by clicking on the comments link below each blog post.
