Oh yeah, I'm not a big fan of the website itself. I've also not hit a situation where I couldn't comment, but if I do, that might be a deal breaker for me too. There was no Firefox extension when I first tried it, so maybe you won't notice the same level of improvement that I do. Not perfect, but a lot closer to functional than before. @Sheila Glad to have you back! Oh yeah, I’m not a big fan of the website itself.

The jiggly adds on the site and the scrolling ads on the tag bar had sent me around the bend. Then when I couldn't post a comment on one blog until I deleted the Firefox add-on, I lost it. I've decided that if as you say the current incarnation of cocomment is an improvement, I can give it one more try. Hoping I can post this comment without the add-on blowing it up.

And I've proven I can go a long time with nothing worth saying. For some reason, I've had a lot on my mind recently. I think it was when I realized how many people were subscribed to the blog and how I was failing to connect with all of them through my silence.

Your blog was always one of those I most looked forward to reading back in the early years.

But I've already found much by way of upside. Thanks for pointing me towards it.

Glad to see another conversationally minded person joined the challenge! I'm finding it's already causing me to rethink my own blogging behavior (in addition to the commenting behavior)... I hope you see positive impacts, too! Yay! Glad to see another conversationally minded person joined the challenge!
