To My WordPress Blogging Friends:

Please, if you have the ability, consider installing THIS plugin. It’s that thing I have that notifies you via email when someone comments on a post you’ve commented on.

Since Blogger added the feature, I find myself depending on it in order to follow the location of conversations. If I’ve left you hanging on a thread somewhere, it’s just because I’ve forgotten where the conversation lives! Since I usually only go to everyone’s site from my Google feed reader (via that AWESOME “next unread” bookmarklet feature), I rarely get back to a conversation that doesn’t notify me of updates.

Ok, that’s it. Please return to your normally scheduled weekend. :)

    Oooh. Thank you. I always wondered if it was a plugin, was just too lazy to find and add it. Installing it now.

    Done! That was painless.

    Thanks for making me think ‘user friendly’ rather than just ‘would I use it’. (I get too much email already…)

    Well, I gave it the “F” for effort.

    I’m getting a fatal error, and according to the Word Press site, the error I’m getting has not been resolved.

    And I’m not up to going through over a thousand lines of php to figure out what’s wrong. Not on a Saturday. :)

    And strangely enough, removing the plug-in restored the Word Press default RSS feed for comments.

    Ah well.

    Michelle,

    Have you updated to the latest form of WordPress? I know they just released a new version not even a few months ago

    Hmmm… that may be it. I haven’t updated since summer.

    Laziness sometimes has it’s drawbacks. :)
