Viewing Comments and Trackback
We've updated the display of the Official Blog to eliminate the comment and trackback count numbers at the bottom of each post.
This change was made for two reasons: first, it's been our observation that the counter has been unreliable at times, displaying a "0" when there are actually comments in the thread.
Secondly, we wanted to shorten the number of characters in the "Posted by" line. Some of our authors have long names, and we'd prefer to keep everything on one line so that nothing gets bumped to a second line.
We apologize if anyone feels inconvenienced, but we ultimately decided this was a change that would improve the Official Blog. You can still leave (or view) comments and trackback pings by clicking on the links at the bottom of each post.
