What?

      

I care :-)

Good, isn't it?



I was quite impressed by the auto-install wizard, right up till I realised it had entered an extra line-break between every line of my template, the bastard. But hey.

Yeah, it seems to be good. I didn't bother before because I didn't think I'd get enough comments to warrant it. But that was before I told God to fuck off.



I know this is in the "writing about blogging" category, so I'll keep it in the comments field: this Haloscan thing is ace. If you use an RSS newsreader and drag Haloscan's rss feed into it, you can make sure you don't miss any comments posted anywhere on your blog without jamming up your email inbox. Lovely.

I'm definitely going to upgrade to the paid-for version.



Yeah, Gary, the reason your inbox is so clogged up is the millions of comments you get on yoru blog. You just keep telling yourself that.

So blogging about blogging is bad, but commenting about blogging is OK? This netiquette is getting tricky.

I've already upgraded. For the email notification and the full HTML and CSS editing. With email notification, I can check the latest comments on my phone, which is handy, since I still don't have proper Web connection at home yet.



Heh. It's not so much clogging that's the problem, it's that I prefer to keep things I need to reply to in my inbox - which soon fills up with loads of work stuff etc. Email notification doesn't work well enough for me either - there's a 50/50 chance of the mails escaping my mail provider's junk mail filtering, and there's no whitelist option. Boo!



I'd love it if there some way of linking Discus to blogs. That would be class. I'm frankly amazed that Discus haven't thought of jumping into that market yet. Though "market" is a strong word for something that's free.



There. I think I've got it all looking quite nice now.

If you're really that interested, here's an RSS feed for the latest comments to this blog. Never miss another pointless argument.

Of course comments are moderated, in a common-sense sort of a way. You don't have to give your email address to post here.

If you know your HTML, you can use <a>, <b>, and <i> tags, and entities, too. If you don't, you can still use them, but with a greater sense of trepidation.

Cheers.
