A Short Update About Comments

Hello people, this isn’t really a post, so much as a short update letting you know of an idea I had.

As you probably know, I shut down comments for a few months this year due to excessive hate mail and an internet stalker. However, what I didn’t consider was the damage this would cause to my regular commenters who post insightful and often hilarious points regarding my article.

In addition, I am starting to develop a fondness for my Twitter account. Honestly, it’s a lot like arguing in my comments section, with hashtags. I’m really enjoying it.

So I have decided to combine my awesome commenters with my twitter account. Every day, I will be picking out a new awesome comment  that has been left on my blog and I will be tweeting it, along with your Twitter handle and/or your blog address. For some reason, I have like 1600+ followers, which indicates to me that the less I speak, the more people like me.

I’m even creating a hashtag for this (damn, I’m good at Tweeting!) #EssaComments. You can follow me on Twitter @Essa_Alroc.

If you have ever submitted a comment on my blog, consider yourself part of the pool. However, if you wish to opt out, because you are a crazy internet recluse, let me know in the comments.

In short, let me know that you don’t want me to post your comment…by commenting. I do enjoy irony.

***If you have a preference over blog or Twitter handle, let me know. I only have 140 characters to work with***
