Blog comments

Jon Udell is amongst an increasing number of bloggers who don’t have comments enabled.  Whilst there may be good reasons, (comment spam), I think it’s a real shame.  I for one find tremendous value in reading the comments associated with posts as they often provide a broader range of perspectives and sometimes additional information or useful links for further study.  People like Jon write very interesting articles and I am sure that the comments would add a lot of value to his posts and whilst there may be alternative loosely commenting mechanisms, these are nowhere near as easy for consumers like me to use.
