Ron has just coded up some more features to improve the functionality of the comments sections. You need to refresh your browser to load the new CSS code to get the functions to work.

We’re doing a live beta test, so please check them out and leave comments pointing out problems, fit and finish issues, and suggestions for future features.

Currently, in the comments you can’t yet see the new Tweet It button that will allow you to send out over Twitter links to particularly good comments (whether your own or other commenters). But, it’s coming soon.

There’s also in the comments a new Filter Comments button in the comments that displays only the thread in which that comment is part of. The idea is to allow you to have the option of focusing upon individual threads of argument within the comments or sticking with the traditional default of looking at all comments in chronological order.

In the meantime, there will no doubt be some issues. For example, the Facebook and Twitter buttons on the posts don’t line up vertically at the moment. Fixed.

Thanks.
