One of my favorite things about using Wordpress as my blogging tool (besides that is free) is that anyone can make a plugin to make service work in just the way you need. I use many different plugins on this site, but today I want to write about one that I’ve been looking for, for months now.
I’m an avid believer in comments as part of the blogging world. I love to get ‘em and leave ‘em. One of the things I don’t love about blogging vs. using a site such as LiveJournal or Vox is that most of the time people don’t get any of the responses I might right back to their comment. I know most of the time I don’t check back to see if anyone has written back when I comment on a blog. The Comment Email Responder fixes that here on this site.
Now, when you leave a comment and I respond to it, you should get an email letting you know what I responded. I wish all websites had this feature, since I think it really opens things up for dialogue.
Anyways, I’ve tested this plugin on a comment I wrote and it worked great for me. If you run Wordpress on your site, maybe this plugin is what you’re looking for as well?
* I have no affilation with the person who created this plugin or his site. I’m just very excited to have this plugin that I’ve been wanting for so long.
