Blog Comments and RSS Subscriptions to Them
One of the things that I recently enabled for my blog was RSS feeds for individual post comments (I think I accidentally forgot to enable this when I switched over to the new Community Server blog software). This enables you to subscribe to the discussions around individual blog postings without having to bookmark or revist the post manually. Just look for the "Subscribe to this post's comments using RSS" link above the "Comments" section on a post to obtain the feed URL to subscribe.
One question I sometimes get asked is "why does it take awhile for my comments to show up on your blog?" Unfortunately due to a lot of spam, I've had to enable moderation on the comments which contributes to the delay (note: I'm hoping to find a way to enable a CAPTCHA check to eliminate the SPAM and do away with moderation entirely).
The other reason for the delay is because I tend to get a lot of comments and individual emails each day (about 80 per day from customers), and depending on my work/travel-load it can take me a few days to get back to all of them. I find that if I approve a comment question without answering it at the same time, I end up forgetting to come back to it. So sometimes I'll hold off on approving it so that it stays on my todo list -- and then I'll approve and answer it at the same time. If you subscribe to the RSS feed of a post you've asked a question on, this should help you with getting notified that an answer is ready.
Hope this helps,
Scott
P.S. To the 70 people who posted comments yesterday (which was the July 4th holiday in the US), your comment questions have now all been answered. ;-)
