A New Commenting System For The Blog! It's Easy! It's Fun!

Categories: Advice

Starting today, you will see something different across our site.

It's right below this post, in fact--it's our new commenting system.

Don't be frightened, it is extremely easy to use and makes the whole commenting process painless (well, commenting is never painless, now is it?).

To sign up, just click "Sign in" in the new comments section below. You can sign up with Facebook, Twitter, Yahoo, Google or email.

Your new Livefyre account enables you to keep track of conversations happening in real-time, allows you to tag people on Facebook and Twitter within the comment threads, and lets you see what your friends are saying and doing on our publications and Voice Places.

So go ahead, sign up, sign in, and continue commenting.

[Please note it may take a while for older comments to load.]

Okay I'm used to it now.  It's better than the old one.

I left a comment on the Ortega Scientology blog a while ago. The comment was posted but it is stuck in the window. When I returned to the blog there was no way to leave a new comment. Please assist. Thanks.

Ahhh....that wasn't so bad, kids!   And with this change of format,  I took this opportunity to change my "nom de Musto," too.  Formerly known as "Gregorama," I am hereby known as "FrankLloydWRONG".   I'm not sure why...just wanted to freshen-up a bit!   I might go get me some botox, too, while I'm at it....

It says you can change your profile picture, but it won't change. ;_;

You can log in with any email you want. After you press "Post comment," put in an email address (let's say joe@mac.com) and then a password that's six characters or more, and you're set.

Yeah, I don't like it either. No edit button. It's to make it easy to do whatever people do on Facebook and Twitter. I don't have Facebook and I have a Twitter account to follow people, but I'm ashamed to say I don't really understand how to tweet.  And I couldn't get my old user name.
