First, the website host set up a new template a couple of
days ago. It automatically identifies Followers, apparently, unless the
blog-owner opts out of it. I just got apprised of it and opted out of
displaying all that material such as photos and so forth.
Secondly, I have been spending quite a bit of time recently
on the Philadelphia clergy-abuse trial currently going on over there. A local
law firm there set up a site to discuss the trial, with a reporter from the
area posting reports on those days when the trial is in session and then
commenters adding their thoughts (or at least their comments).
I hadn’t planned to spend as much time as I have, but I
encountered all sorts of interesting phenomena (in the form of unusual
commenters) and I thought it worthwhile to engage in a bit of back-and-forth.
You can get an idea of my approach to things, and also what
one encounters when trying to make contributions to certain topics.
