PUBLIC MARKS with tag blogging

Yep, comments seem a bit of an anachronism nowadays. I think I’ll probably turn them off on my blog too, when I get round to deploying the new version I’ve half-finished. I miss the long-form responses though. Tweet responses can be hard to follow with the character limit forcing over-simplicity. That’s one of the nice things about Google+, although it’d be nicer still to make more of a return to personal blogs.

I’m tempted to just turn comments off, they certainly attract more spam than good stuff. I think they make sense if you already have a huge readership, otherwise other channels seem better. I kind of like the olden days, where you’d see a blog post and respond by writing your own blog post linking to the former.

Teaching something is a great way to learn. Also writing things on my blog always gets good 'comments', hints, tips, plenty of heart, and outright HATE from people. All useful and entertaining :)

This site is no longer actively maintained. I mainly post on Google+ now.
