If you've been having trouble commenting by creating a Typepad profile and signing in, would you let me know? I've had at least one person report this problem to me and I want to know if others are having it as well. While I've had some comments since installing the new comment system, it seems to me comments are lighter than normal so maybe others are having the same difficulty.
Email me if you're having trouble, please.
But in case it wasn't clear, you don't HAVE to create or use a Typepad profile in order to comment. You can just type in your name, email and URL (if you have one) and leave a comment the way you used to do before. So if you're having trouble with the new profiles, try commenting without and see if that works any better.
I have the option of reverting back to the old system but want to give this new one a fair trial and it IS in beta testing at the moment, so there are bound to be some bugs. But do let me know if you can't comment, with or without the Typepad profiles. Thanks and sorry for any inconvenience.
