New comments

Rightio, that’s me added the Haloscan commenting and trackback system to the blog. It should be self-explanatory; unfortunately it does mean that while existing comments are still on the various blog entries, they won’t show up as “Comments [3]” or whatever. Sorry.

One of the main advantages of Haloscan is that you can leave your name without having to sign up for a Blogger account or similar, and you can include a link to your web site as well. Needless to say, blatant comment spam will be deleted…

Agree? Disagree? Then by all means leave a comment, although please note that spammers will be shot. If you subscribe to the feed you can get future articles delivered to your feed reader.

I’ve been meaning to get around to that for a while.

Are you having to pay any royalties to Bob Hoskins?

Heh.

I’m quite taken by Haloscan actually - I’m skint at the moment but when I’m a bit more organised I’ll upgrade to a paid-for account so I can get rid of the ads. I’m also considering hiring a CSS expert to do a redesign of my site - I know exactly what I want to do but don’t have the necessary design expertise to make it happen. Or the time.

The only downside to changing your comments system is that things are a bit confusing at first - older posts still have the Blogger commenting system. But that’ll sort itself out sooner or later.

I really need to work out how trackbacks work, though. Too busy just now :(
