RSS feed for Comments?

How many people would use an RSS reader to keep up with this blog’s Comments, if it had one?

I do not believe that Blogger’s native Comments feature supports the addition of Comments to any page (someone please correct me if this is wrong), so I’d be reinstating the very nice and friendly HaloScan Comments. Dunno what I did last time that messed it up, but it broke the page. I suspect if that happens again, someone who can read markup better than I will need to help me un-break it, but if there is a strong preference for RSS feed, it shoudn’t be too hard.

If you don’t know what RSS is, check the wikipedia article on it, then go to Bloglines and set some up for yourself. If you are on Mac OS X, check out NetNewsWire Lite, or use Safari 2.0’s native support for the feed: protocol.

Please drop your Comments in the handy bloggercomments link here.

  1. It has kind of been bothering me as well, and I even get mail as soon as comments show up... well, most of the time.

    Having recently started following RSS feeds again (thanks to Bloglines, due to needing it on multiple machines), I am wishing to support that format again.

    Sure wish Blogger did it automatically.

dan simmons’ fiction

“I came back for my own purposes,” said the Time Traveler, looking around my booklined study. “I chose you to talk to because it was . . . convenient. And I don’t want you to do a goddamned thing. There’s nothing you can do. But relax . . . we’re not going to be talking about personal things. Such as, say, the year, day, and hour of your death. I don’t even know that sort of trivial information, although I could look it up quickly enough. You can release that white-knuckled grip you have on the edge of your desk.” I tried to relax. “What do you want to talk about?” I said. “The Century War,” said the Time Traveler. I blinked and tried to remember some history. “You mean the Hundred Year War? Fifteenth Century? Fourteenth? Sometime around there. Between . . . France and England? Henry V? Kenneth Branagh? Or was it . . .” “I mean the Century War with Islam,” interrupted the Time Traveler. “Your future. Everyone’s.” He was no longer smiling. Without asking, or offering to pour me any, he ...

McDS, or, “losing my religion with bbc”

BBC NEWS: Nintendo in McDonald’s wi-fi deal Nintendo has joined forces with McDonald’s to offer free wireless internet access in the US for its DS handheld games console. The service means McDonald’s customers will be able to play selected DS titles against other gamers around the globe. Rivals Sony and Microsoft already offer online gaming on their game consoles. Could that last sentence be any less without point? Could it be any more misleading? It makes Nintendo sound like they are pulling up to the game late. It reads like they are responding to something that Microsoft and Sony have established. It’s not. What Sony and Microsoft have, in their home consoles is the ability to connect one’s home system to one’s existing internet service. So these are stationary machines in people’s homes that they can connect to the internet service they are already paying for on their own. With Sony’s PSP, and its built-in 802.11g wireless capability,...

Tony diTerlizzi and classic D&D monsters

The sixth entry of his series on drawings of classic D&D monsters is up. He's one of my favorite fantasy artists. His work tends toward the charming and cozy, rather than others' focus on machismo or melodrama.
