Threaded Comments

by Randy on March 1, 2008 · Comments

I tried this threaded comment idea a long time ago and it was yuck. Now they have a new plugin so help me test it to see if it’s still yuck.

Talk about whatever you want but this “open thread” is to test the threaded comments feature to see if we want to keep it.

I know I can count on God, death, taxes, and Randy changing his blog;) It's a great addition! Subtle, yet effective.

Cut me some slack man ;). At least nowadays it's isn't complete overhauls of the blog and just tweaks :).

with the linear view of comments before, it was so easy for two people to run a thread. My hope is that this will better facilitate conversations within threads.

does that make any sense?

I fully support! And I hadn't even thought about the benefit of opening up the comment thread to multiple, simultaneous conversations, I'm sure that will come in handy.

Overall, I really like it. I notice no time stamp on the replies. Just an observation. The different colors helps separate out the different layers. If I'm tracking right, my comment should have the lime green border. :-) Okay, here we go... 'Submit'.

Well, you were lime :). Now you are #457AA6 (deeper shade of blue.) The lime and the orange were freakin' me out. I am working on the time stamp.
