I’ve made some tweaks to [Off-Topic](http://johnaugust.tumblr.com), 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](http://tumblr.com) blog with a lot of CSS hackery to make it resemble the rest of the site, and now a comment system powered by [Disqus](http://disqus.com).
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.
