comments, now on twitter
My comments form was ugly. I never really designed it, it was just morphed from the default Expression Engine form. Comments have never been widely used on my site, and rather than spending time to tighten up the submit form, I’ve decided to scrap commenting altogether.
Twitter has become a better home for worthwhile commentary and exchange of ideas than any comment thread has ever been — ever — in the entire history of the Internet. And most people who would be inclined to make a long form response already have a blog of their own. Even if they don’t, they could start one in seconds by creating a tumblog or simply emailing posterous.
No existing comments are being removed. If you have some feedback for a post, let me know at @skoda on twitter.
