I’m not sure how comments work for Blogger/Blogspot or LiveJournal, but there are definite disadvantages to using a program like WordPress for blogging. I have to moderate each comment posted to my site to help filter out spam — I had about 100 messages in the queue over the weekend. Anyone interested in online Texas Hold ‘Em, viagra, or discounted porn DVDs?

If you tried posting a comment lately, be aware I might have deleted it during my house-cleaning. I did manage to save one (that’s you, Eric!) comment from the trash. I hope there weren’t others.

That also explains the delay from the time you commented to the time it appears on my site. I have to see that it’s waiting in the queue and then approve it.
