Hey JT, glad you liked the post. And thanks for the headsup on the “Subscribe to Comments” plugin, because I hadn’t noticed that there were no messages being shown! I’ve fixed that now, though the plugin author should really do something to make it work by default…

Thanks for the great article! I always learn something everytime I read a post like this! Something to add might be to talk about adding in sidebar functionality – like the myBlogLog block, or technorati favorite link, etc.

oh- and on the bottom of your comment form you have a checkbox, which I assume is to for comment notification via email (but there is no text saying that). This is a bug in one of the versions of the ’subscribe to comments’ plugin – you have to to into Options->Subscribe to Comments and add the text into the right field for it to appear on the page, otherwise nobody knows what the checkbox is for.

thanks again!

I think a recent comments section in your right hand menu would be a good addition to this site. It goes even further than the subscribe to comments plug-in, it helps people know what discussions are going on in posts they’ve not even participated in.
