Testing a new comments system

I haven't been happy with our Wiki based comments system for some time. So, I've written a new system and am testing it off the Home page and for this article only. Please feel free to test it out; if there aren't too many problems I'll put it in place sitewide soon.

Publish your articles, comments, book reviews or opinions here!

This is a comment without a subject. You should be able to edit your own comments or any "anonymous" comment.

It's quick and easy to create an account, or just comment anonymously if you prefer.

I do allow P, BR, B and I, even UL and LI:

• Bold
• italic

but I don't think header tags are necessary in comments. I suppose I could just replace them with a surrounding break and change them to bold.. hmm.. let's try that:


Allowed Header





As for top posting, we can do it either way..

Nothing seemed to break, so I've deployed this site-wide. If you have any problems, let me know.

Many of the products and books I review are things I purchased for my own use. Some were given to me specifically for the purpose of reviewing them. I resell or can earn commissions from the sale of some of these items. Links within these pages may be affiliate links that pay me for referring you to them. That's mostly insignificant amounts of money; whenever it is not I have made my relationship plain. I also may own stock in companies mentioned here. If you have any question, please do feel free to contact me.

Specific links that take you to pages that allow you to purchase the item I reviewed are very likely to pay me a commission. Many of the books I review were given to me by the publishers specifically for the purpose of writing a review. These gifts and referral fees do not affect my opinions; I often give bad reviews anyway.
