Check out today's Pearls Before Swine comic -- it's about negative commenters on blogs, and it asks -- if they hate a blog or blogger so much, why do they keep coming back to it?
Now, for blogger Goat, even having a persistent negative commenter is kind of an improvement -- about this time last year, Goat wasn't getting any comments at all (the strip isn't available online anymore).
Anyway, I sent the link over to Nancie at the Marvelous Mob as something she might want to write about, since this is right up her alley.
Thanks -- Joe

Joe, that would be fantastic if you did an entry explaining how those w/o AOL or AIM screenames could post in AOL journals! That would be a great service. I hope you post it in Magic Smoke along with your other blog. Thanks for all your great help, and your promptness in answering me! Looking forward to the entry,
Krissy :)

Dee -- it's definitely not a feature; sounds like a problem with SNS authentication. Try clearing your footprint (cookies and cache): http://socialmedia.aim.com/20

Then restart your AOL and let me know if that helps or not.

Krissy -- people without AOL or AIM screennames can use their e-mail address as a screen name (they just have to register it first; it's on the SNS sign in screen, although it's not that clear) -- I will do an entry about it. Actually, I think I will do it in Joseph's Community Info Blog and double publish it or cross link it from here.
Re: your Buddy List sounds problem. Not sure what's going on with your computer, but I notice that sometimes when my machine is having sound problems, it won't play sounds, then all of sudden it will play all the caught up sounds in a bunch. You can turn off your Buddy Sounds at Keyword: Expression Settings; you can also change your Buddy Sounds at Keyword: Expressions.

Hey Joe, what's up with Journals? Why are we having to log into them (if we're already logged into AOL -- I'm a AOL subscriber) in order to create new entries?? Right now, in order to make new Journal entries, I have to to click onto the "Blog About This Entry" option on my Journal to get the "log in" page to appear. Why all the extra security for our Journals, and "My Calendar"?
Is it just a 9.0/Vista thing, or is everyone experiencing this?
Thanks,
~Dee

But, I know some journals who are hardly read but have quality in the writing and thoughts. All depends what you value. Many blogs have hundred of comments, and often they are blogs from people who are sick or moan all the time. Being kind, or nice, does not always pay as much, again if we only value the number of comments in return.
I never had as many comments on my blog than the day I said I felt depressed. When I write I am happy, almost none... funny no? ah ah ah
