If you disabled comments, its like you turned your website to a closed system where you will never get any feedback. if there was something going wrong with the blog and no one infromed you, you may face deep trouble latter. i guess comments are a very powerful tool

Comments are huge. Its you number one feedback mechanism from your readers. I wrote about this a while back and I hope to get comments on it :-)

[since I am still trying to understand how best to be part of the conversation, I am cross posting this comment at Chris' blog (his link is above)]

Chris, while my post wasnt an anti-comments post, it was a question on how best to engage and grow the conversation from a single blog post. Comments, by definition stay on one site. I linked to your site, which prompted you to comment on mine. Perhaps someone will read your comment and write a post, or comment here, and then the story begins to grow. Dont you think there is value in that? I would rather include as many people and brains in a conversation, versus having the conversation be between one dude sitting on a hill, and a bunch of others talking to him.

Its one of the things I like about lijit (I swear not a pitch, even though I work there!). It allows me to see what my friends and their friends are writing about a particular topic, and join in the conversation by either writing a post or commenting.

Make sense? Or am I high on Christmas Spirit?

an entire post about comments, I value them so much. So I think comments are the bees knees. : )

My point is tho, I am not asking for comments / trackbacks, etc for the stats, its for the conversation. Which is more interesting when more people are involved. So if someone reads this post, and responds with a post, then then their readers might get involved, etc. Then it becomes interesting.

Hmm. Ok, my two cents. Comments are awesome. They rock. Over the (almost) 4 years I've had my blog the comments I've received have inspired me, provoked me to consider other opinions, made me laugh out loud, have provided validation and have been a mode of recognition.

I guess you have to figure why you blog and what you want to get out of blogging. Only then will you have a concept of where comments fit into the whole mix.

I write my blog for me. While I follow stats, I don't change anything to get more readers or hits. With my blog, what you see is what you get. Just a normal (??) chick who's a liberal with purple hair that likes Alt music, anything Apple, my friends (many of who I have met thru my blog), dogs and sports. And blogs.

In closing, blogging is not rocket science. It's as difficult...or simple..as the blogger wants to make it.

One final thought. Maybe those of you that work in tech-related industries **may** take blogging a little more seriously than most since it may or may not reflect on your business persona. Just a last minute thought right before I hit submit.

ps- Micah, I found you thru comments on Andrew's site. So yay...rock on comments :-)
