Huckleberries Online

About Commenting …

One of the problems I'm noticing with the comments section is ongoing discussions and my inability to "feed the beast." If I make a comment, I may not check back for several hours or several days. By that time, who knows what's been posted in my absence. Which leaves me feeling vulnerable, wondering if I should leave the commenting to those who visit more often. My guess is other blurkers share my sentiment.

I.B. Lurking


DFO: I enjoy comments from viewers and have been wondering why they've dropped off. Is I.B. right here? Do you not comment because it gets lost if your look away for half a day or so? Do you know that you can find your comment plus any that comes after at any time under the individual item where you posted your comment? Then, you don't have to read through the most recent posts to find it. And you can post additional comments under your initial one to answer something that might have come up while you were away. Bottom line? If you enjoy Huckleberries, pleaz post comments. They're not only interesting. They provide encouragement.
