Recent Comments

Yay! I think I just installed a "recent comment" hack successfully. You can now scroll down my sidebar and see the 10 most recent comments posted to my blog. If you want this nice feature, go here and follow the directions exactly.

Hooray!! That's cool. :-)

May I make a suggestion? You may prefer it a different way, but I was thinking if you moved it up closer to the top it will be easy for me to quickly see if there are any new comments. Just an idea. :-) I like it though.

Yeah, I had thought of that, but Lane cautioned me to follow the directions precisely, because the code is complicated. But, now that it did work, I'm willing to try to tweak it a bit. . .

. . . And I just did, and it worked! I agree that the recent comments are better up top.

I have often wondered how to install this feature. Thanks for putting us onto this, Susan. I don't know when I'll get around to installing it, but hopefully I will do it some time!

Thanks for the suggestions, Lane. I'll have to look at the options when I get the chance. I've considered using tags, but I'm not sure I want to invest a lot of time in setting that up. 'Twould be hlepful, though. Anyway, thanks for the heads-up!
