I actually do think they are important to a blog and that my critics were right that the blog suffered without them.

If that’s true I consider they are not letting you to express your self, I’m having those problems too.

Well, I think this plugin is suitable for certain group of people such as those blogs who only post interesting videos and need only interactivity such as “Great Find”.

I am not sure what you are talking about… ;)

More and more blogs are suffering this fate…

This is the result of… RSS readers, at least in my opinion.

Well, I think this plugin is suitable for certain group of people such as those blogs who only post interesting videos and need only interactivity such as “Great Find”.

It might not be suitable for blogs which require critics more than just a “thanks”. In fact, we can leave all those “thanks” comments to this plugin that you have introduced me as I have just tried it after you have introduced it. I found that it is more for finding out how many people find this article useful or useless without having to “spam” that comment box in the blog…

[...] It took two years, but I’ve decided after initially disparaging comments (sentiments echoed recently by some well-known bloggers), I actually do think they are important to a blog and that my critics were right that the blog suffered without them. So starting today I have comments at the end of each post. (My old posts will remain free of comments since I have left them in their original format.) [...]

I want things to go back to the days of the dialup BBSes, where message boards reflected more of a spirit of community…

[...] Even as Chris Pirillo wrote this morning; as he related a new plugin for bloggers that attempts to ease that barrier that our readers put up, as much as we might like feedback of what we write about in many cases it seems that we are writing more for ourselves. [...]

I think a lot of the public commenting has moved to back channels like Facebook, Twitter, etc. Either that or other bloggers are so obsessed with trying to have a “unique voice” that they’re hesitant to show where they’re really ripping ideas from.

Oh, and ClickComments irritates me. Where is the “Boring”, “Doesn’t make sense”, “WTLW”, etc. All the feedback is obnoxiously positive.

Maybe it’s just that all the Paris Hilton press irritated everyone to the point that all A-Listers (celebs or bloggers) should be publicly ignored.

Chris, I’m with you on how difficult it can be to get comments on a blog. But one thing I noticed, your comment link is above the post.

I had mine the same way up till about 2 weeks ago and simply moving it to the bottom seemed to increase comments almost the same day.

Having read your stuff for years, you probably have tested it already tho’ ;)
