How to comment on this blog

Some readers have encountered problems posting comments to this blog. At first this was because I hadn't changed one of the default settings - by default, the system only lets you comment if you have an online ID of some kind, but I've fixed this now.

To leave a comment, first click on the "comments" link at the bottom of the article. Under the "Post a comment" text entry box, you'll see a drop down list labelled "Comment as". Click on the down arrow and you'll see a set of options. If you have an online account from Google, LiveJournal or one of the other entries, you can use that. Otherwise select "Name/URL". Enter your name in the pop-up box. You can leave the URL box blank, or type in a URL for your home page if you have one. but I'm told the system doesn't accept e-mail addresses in this field.

Then just type your comment in the text entry box and click on Post Comment. You'll be prompted to enter a captcha as an anti-spam measure, but apart from that you'll have posted the comment in your own name.
