The topic of blogging came up today on a mailing list that I belong to associated with the Entcon conference I attend each year in Denver. We have a visionary in the group by the name of Bill French who is sometimes so far out ahead of everyone that it's hard to see his dust. He's quite familiar with blogging and RSS and has a company that wrote some amazing software to help automate the process. He commented during a recent exchange that one of the people who was interested in blogging (Jack) should give Blogger a test drive. Jack got it set up in no time and had 7 postings to it in the first hour.

While reading Jack's blog, I found a new feature that had been added to Blogger that now allows people to comment on postings. I've decided to add it to our blog. You just click on the link called 'comments' below this posting to read comments or add a comment about it. That way, if you want to comment on a posting rather than making a whole new entry, you can give it a try. You do have to have a user ID on blogger which most of you that read the blog already have in order to make a comment. Otherwise, I'm sure it would accumulate spam-like postings.

So go ahead and give it a try if you like. It will be interesting to see how it works.

Sorry, I just couldn't wait. I had to see if it actually worked! It appears that it does. This should be good for those of you who are too shy to make a posting of your own, but would like to acknowledge those that you read on this blog.
