Blog Comments

I changed how commenting works on the blog.  Comments are no longer moderated, but you must have an account.  (No Anonymous posting anymore)  However, I do allow OpenID postings, so you don't have to have a Google or Blogger account.

I originally turned on comment moderation because of the types of postings I was getting, now I changed it to not allow anonymous commenting because lots of people were trying to plug their own website or product by posting comments about articles on the blog.  

I'm half and half about this kind of thing, so instead of rejecting their comments, I'll just require them to have an ID.

Just kidding, but I understand the switch. Sometimes moderation can take up an hour of time on high traffic sites.
