  • Hey, looks like there’s another remotely-hosted weblog commenting system on the market. It’s called BlogBack and it seems a little more customizable than Reblogger. You might wanna give it a try. Or maybe you wanna just wait until I finally release my homegrown blogging system to the world. Now there’s something I could do to…
