Practise posting a comment

This is just a test blog which doesn't have followers or visitors so you can try posting a comments in the knowledge that it is only me who is likely to know about it!

Communities of bloggers evolve that can offer support in many ways and provide a social connection to those who may otherwise feel isolated. I know many of you prefer just to read blogs and not get any further involved - which is absolutely fine - but I also know that there are some of you out there who would love to become part of the blogging community.

Some feel that to join in conversations would be a bit like crashing a private party. The commenters all seem to 'know' one another. We all started off feeling the same way but all the bloggers that I know welcome new commenters with open arms. We're a friendly bunch and won't write anything to make you feel uncomfortable or suggest that you are an intruder. You don't have to keep a blog of your own but if you do we are likely to pop over to have a peep at it.

Then some of you may just not know how to become involved so here is a quick help guide just for you. 

First click on the comments link at the foot of the post
A box will open as shown below

  1. Type your comment in the box
  2. Choose how to login ( If you do not have one of the accounts listed choose Name/Url. You don't need to have an Url and can use your own name or a nickname. You may be asked to click in a box to prove that you are not a robot. Try to avoid using Anonymous as many bloggers will consider messages from Anonymous to be spam).
You can them go ahead and publish your comment.
Some blogs are set up so that the author can read the comment before allowing it to be published. If you click in the Notify me box you should receive an email when your comment is published. With my blog comments to newer posts are published straight away.

Don't be afraid to have a go  as no-one will mind if you get things wrong. Comments don't have to be in English.

NB: This open invitation does not extend to spammers who post bogus comments to advertise products that instead only serve to annoy. If such comments make it through the spam filtering they will be removed. I moderate comments for posts older than five days before allowing publication. Please ignore any links posted by spammers to avoid giving encouragement.
