Comments: Don't be shy

October 21, 2005

Readers, I know you’re out there. At this early stage in my blog’s life I’m getting about a thousand unique visitors a day – not big by any means, but when I watch my logs I do get a bit of that hosting-a-party sensation. I know only a tiny fraction of visitors will ever comment, and that’s as it should be. But I really enjoy getting comments.

So, don’t be shy.

Or, if you want to go meta and gripe about how I should have a better comments interface, or you really wish I supported trackbacks, or think I should use hosted comment solution XYZ, say that!

Allowing trackbacks would me nice. At least you would be automatically notified if I’m linking to one of your posts etc. Your comment system is fine by the way.
