Blogger Changes

As of today, I'm going to give the Blogger Comments option a try (I have been using Haloscan up to now without problems). As a result, you will see that at the bottom of each of my posts there are 2 "comments" links. The one on the same line as the post info is Blogger, the other is Haloscan. Blogger emails me a notification when a comment is posted, Haloscan doesn't. Bloggers comments open in a new window with the current post, after which you get another window option to post a comment (similar to Typepad) - Haloscan opens a pop-up window in which you can both post and view comments.

Feel free to use any of them. I'll leave them up for a bit and see which works better, then decide which stays.

And so ends your info slot for the day! :)

::update::
OK, straight off Blogger has some "don't like this" things in the comments feature. First, no link back to the main blog. Second, endless windows to open to get where you want to be, and then having to hit "back" to get where you were. And third, it seems you can't see the other comments, just the main post, if you're posting a comment. So Blogger - you're on trial here, behave yourself or it's back to Haloscan! :)

Oh, there is one good thing - that's email notification so I don't have to keep checking if anyone's said anything, or where.

::another update::
I've decided to take down the blogger comments and just leave Haloscan working. The comments posted to blogger have not been deleted, only hidden. Working both systems was just a leeetle bit too much! :)
