There?s a lot of nice information here, though I did want to let you know something, I'm running Redhat with the up-to-date beta of Firefox, and the design of your site is kind of wonky for me. I can read the articles, but the navigation doesn?t function so well. Great articles.

I agree, it is important to find the blogs that you read regularly and stay involved in the discussion in a regular, relevant and timely manner. A great 5 point plan for commenting.

On the other hand, <a href="http://dilbertblog.typepad.com" rel="nofollow">Scott Adams</a> reads all his comments (and he can get up over 500 on a good post). Comments aren't for everyone I suppose.

Given there are better (and thus worse) comments, what do you do with the bad ones ? Your number 4 seems like a good one but can easily go the wrong way. If someone keeps leaving shitty comments what do you do... (no, I'm not trying to drop any hints here...and I hope I'm not leaving a shitty comment either) I have a question for you Noah.

"Do you stop going with a girl after the first kiss?" "Well, maybe if it's all that I'm ever going to get". Lol, just kidding, I'll comment on your next post, just to prove it ain't so :).
