I won’t believe it till I see it!…
do you see it?
Yes, I see and believe. Blessed are my eyes.
Allowing it to go this many levels deep means that people can be as persnickety as they want without making the comment section all messy.
You can reply to a reply to a reply to a reply.
But that’s it.
You can’t reply to a reply to a reply to a reply to a reply.
That would be overdoing it.
I say to you, blessed is he who does not see, and yet believes.
If this threading feature works, everyone will know this comment is a reply to Bryan’s comment, even absent an initial “@Bryan” salutation.
Yeah, I love it. This will enhance the conversational nature of your blog.
i think you’re right
love this.
Actually, it’s kind of a bummer, because now I don’t receive the comments in my reader feed. It’s kind of cool though…
I am giving this a try to see if that does work!
I’m trying to get along with the new format, but I have to say I miss the photography and color of the old one.
You do realize they don’t charge extra for color on the web, right? ;)
The nested commenting is very cool.
Abraham-
Not letting me reply to your reply to a reply to a reply is limiting my ability to “be as persnickety as I want.”
Well, I guess you do add, “…without making the comment section all messy,” which I’ve now done.
Sorry.
…and I realize I replied to the wrong reply. Again, sorry.
Another new feature, this one rather painful, is how tormented that lovely, clothbound book looks on the home page. I’m sure it never did anything wrong to deserve such treatment–few books do, if any–but perhaps its reader was called away immediately and had to set it down in a rush, a reader apparently unprepared with a bookmark, who otherwise could have lain it pleasantly on its back cover, with unencumbered spine, bookmark smoothly placed between its pristine pages. I can’t look…adblock…
