You could build yourself a disquis-esque comment system (there are probably existing OSS ones out there) that you could just embed in each static blog page's html code. I do like the idea of separating the comment system from the blog hosting system itself (modularity is always good). An obvious suggestion that comes to mind is Disquis, but after reading this article (found via google... I don't frequent this web site!), I don't think I'll ever personally use disquis: http://www.redstate.com/2012/09/01/our-failing-disqus-experiment/ /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
