The new commenting system has been in place for a week or so. Would welcome feedback below. What’s good? What’s not good? What other systems have you seen elsewhere that you think might be good?
Easily the best commenting system of any evangelical blog I have ever read! :)
Could do with increasing (or doing away with?) the character limit thing tho.

@cerebusboy I may not have any control over that. Anyway, helps stop you going on and on…

@peterould Hey, it was Jill who made that point in a thread below (I just happened to agree with her).
Aren’t you concerned about all the juicy Daily Mail-esque links we could be missing out on? ;)

@cerebusboy And the prosecution rests

@peterould Harrumph.
Anyway, as I say, this is broadly speaking a great design – so hope you don’t change it in a month or so!

Of course I love the new commenting system. It’s easy, lightweight and really does a good job in incorporating the social networks if you decide to do so.
Jill
I do love it when Ryan agrees with me! The system seems good, but the character limit thingy is very annoying especially as you don’t know how many characters you are allowed until you have tried to post. It doesn’t seem to allow very many. Some of us like going on and on!

I’ve got used to it now and, yes, it is easier. I just have to remember to log into Facebook before I start writing my post, otherwise I lose it. I liked your earlier version which gave the facility to link within the post and to bold and italic. Any chance of getting those facilities back?
Aber mit der Heimat
geht man immer herum,
durch die Welt,
dort und dort
Peter Handke
No one could describe
the Word of the Father;
but when He took flesh from you, O Theotokos,
He consented to be described, and restored the fallen image to its former beauty.
We confess and proclaim our salvation in word and image.

The Venerable Bede
God our maker,
whose Son Jesus Christ gave to your servant Bede
grace to drink in with joy the word
that leads us to know you and to love you:
in your goodness
grant that we also may come at length to you,
the source of all wisdom,
and stand before your face;
through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord,
who is alive and reigns with you,
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, now and for ever.
God’s Word
Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the wicked, nor stands in the way of sinners, nor sits in the seat of scoffers; but his delight is in the law of the LORD, and on his law he meditates day and night. He is like a tree planted by streams of water that yields its fruit in its season, and its leaf does not wither. In all that he does, he prospers. (Psalm 1:1-3, ESV)
