I spent way too much time yesterday trying to make Blogger’s crappy comment system fit into my site, but to no avail. You see if you turn on comments, you also have to turn on what Blogger calls ‘post page archiving’. With this genius idea, you get an entire separate page for every post you publish. I realize that memory is cheap, but this seems wasteful to me. I mean, sometimes I’ll just post something like, ‘Blogger and its commenting system suck ass’, and I would get an entire extra .html or .php page just for that one line of text. Plus, it just doesn’t fit in with how my site is designed. And I don’t want to redo it all again.

As a result of all of this, I will not be using Blogger’s comments unless I can figure out a way to make them work for me. I think I am smarter than Blogger, but so far I am not.
