Blog Format Change – Comments

by Mark Graban on June 28, 2008 · 4 comments

Hi – if you’re a regular reader (or especially a frequent commenter), you may notice a change to how comments are entered.If you click on “comments” to add a comment, this is now done on the main blog page, instead of being in a pop up window.

I’m not sure if I like this approach yet… to read existing comments, you have to scroll up on the page.

What do you think? Should I leave it this way or change it back? I know, I know, I should switch to WordPress…. someone is bound to leave that comment… that’s not something I can tackle right now.

Hi Mark,
This comment format seems easy and looks ok.

I like this way better, Mark. The pop-up window is sort of annoying.

I am a fan of the pop up myself.

OK, thanks for the input. I’m not taking a formal poll, but it’s 2:1 in favor of the new format. Is it a deal breaker for anyone to not have the old pop up format?

The in-line comments approach is in keeping with other blogs I read, including Evolving Excellence.
