This morning I discovered a new way of posting comments to blogs. JS-Kit Comments is a whizzy web 2.0, completely buzzword compliant way of allowing users to post comments on blog posts. If you are a WordPress blog user it is a snap to install as there is a handy plug-in. The service allows readers of your site to log in using their Facebook or Yahoo! IDs making authentication for them easy. Moderation can be done on the JS-Kit site but the plug in play nice with Akismet too. There is also the beginnings of a reporting tool.

I’m trying it out for a while, I don’t get so many comments on the site so I figured if I try to make it easier for people then more may come.

Have you integrated JS-Kit on your site? Let me know your experience with it in the comments.

OK it is very likely that this video will get killed by the Lucas Corporation some time soon but while it lasts it is pretty funny. This YouTube user has gone out of their way to translate that lovable little droid from Star Wars. My particular favorite is the way that R2-D2 treats Jar Jar Binks. That flopsy eared muppet get short shrift from the little fella.

Anyway enjoy it while you can.
