Off-topic tweaks
I’ve made some tweaks to Off-Topic, including adding comments. For those who never click over there, Off-Topic is largely a list of things I find amusing and/or interesting, including a lot of videos.
The section is experimental, with the explicit goal of trying new things that are prone to failure. It’s not even hosted on the same server as the rest of the site. It’s a Tumblr blog with a lot of CSS hackery to make it resemble the rest of the site, and now a comment system powered by Disqus.
The new comment system is actually a lot slicker than the built-in comments used in the main site. But slick often equates with trouble-prone, so we’ll see if it’s useful and stable.

I didn’t even know you were also a geek John. But you seem to be quite knowledgeble about computers, web-authoring, web-programming, etc, along with being an expert on screenwriting.

The tumblr is a great idea. Now I can just hit “follow” for that part of the site.
