TypePad Connect - Create a Profile

Typepad (our blogging interface) has created a new program called Typepad Connect. The purpose of this system is to enhance blogging comments and create better communication between participants. Typepad Connect is completely free and will allow anyone with an email address to create a profile. You can create your profile here.

Here are some added benefits of creating a profile:

• Your picture will be displayed next to your comments.
• Readers of this blog can read your profile and subscribe to your comments.
• You can share your blog(s) with the rest of us.
• You can choose to be notified whenever someone replies to your comment.

In addition to that, we will now have "comment threading" available. This means that you can click "reply" below anyone's comment and respond directly to that comment without having to post at the end of a string of comments and say "This is in response to Joe's comment 20 comments ago about..."

 

With that said, can I encourage you to spend the 3 minutes it takes to set up a profile? And if this isn't your sort of thing, no worries! You can still post annonymously or however you like.
