At Ben’s request I am not going to write any more crap this week. I wanted to ask you, readers, a few questions concerning this site.

1)Currently the rant page displays the most recent rant with others available in the archives section.

Q:
Would it be better to display the last four rants on the rant page? I feel like they go away and die in the archives quite fast.

2)I feel that just when people start commenting on a rant it is time for a new one to take its place.

Q:
Is a rant a week too fast? Should I slow it down to every other week? Once a month?

3)I have the option of editing my rant after I post it (fixing typos) and I receive an email any time you guys make a comment. I could extent these abilities to you but you would have to have an “account” to do this.

Q:
Would you like a feature where you sign up with a username and p-word account on maestrojed.com (formally High Five Friday) and were able to subscribe to rants that you like? You would then receive an email anytime a comment is made on that specific rant. You could also log in and edit your comments.

4)
Q:
Do you have any other general suggestions or comments about this site or specifically the rant section?

Tell your friends about it. It will be more fun with the more people (and more random people) that comment. In case you didn’t know, html code is allowed in the comment field. Therefore, if you want to format your text, insert pictures, add links, etc. to your post, feel free.

I am glad you guys are viewing my blog. This is fun and I think it will only get better. It would be cool to have more viewers and comments. (tell all your friends, wink wink).

After my last post, Derrick and I got into a back and forth commenting spree. I am going to attempt to refrain from this in the future. I am not upset with Derrick and I don’t think he is upset with me. That is not the reason. Rather the back and forthness seemed to distract from the original post and from others’ comments. Therefore, I am going to attempt to keep my replies to a matter-of-fact style and not so argumentative towards one view.

Do not take this the wrong way. I want, really want, comments. I really like to see the replies to comments. I think we all do. So please keep it up. Just don’t feel ignored if I or someone else does not engage in a continuous on-line debate
