		<description>Can&#039;t vote for some reason, but I like the comments as they are. 

As for the &#039;J&#039; names, I understand it&#039;s one of the site&#039;s foibles, but they confuse me. I visit most days, but my clapped out brain refuses to differentiate between one &#039;J&#039; and another - I&#039;ve no sense, for example, of whose taste in books I share - because I don&#039;t retain an idea of who reviewed what. 
Joongirl would be great, because it&#039;s memorable (Jo, Jezebel, Jeremiah - anything that doesn&#039;t have a Jane/Jayne/Jaana look to it.)</description>

		<description>Jane,

any chance you could move the feedburner subscription window to below the comment window on the page?  I understand why it&#039;s there, but it&#039;s really in the way when I&#039;m trying to get to the new comments and causes me to scroll.  Since I have a bum shoulder, the less I have to scroll the less pain is involved in feeding my internet/DA addiction. :)

Thanks.</description>

		<description>Loonigrrl + Jane name = Jester, of course! ^^

Oh and re: threaded comments - as a Wordpress and LiveJournal user I&#039;m fine with whatever you do.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m not quite sure how the threaded comments would be structured, so it&#039;s hard to vote yea or nay.  My one reason for liking threaded comments would be that some of the discussions would stay alive longer.  My brain being as slow as molasses in January, I sometimes think of things to say a few days after a post appears.  By that time there&#039;s often little or no point, as the discussion on that topic is complete and everyone else has moved on.  So it can be a bit frustrating, even if being somewhat behind the times is not a new experience for me so I should be used to it by now.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m fine with ads, on a temporary or permanent basis, but please -- no animated ads. Smart Bitches takes forever and a day to load on my work computer because each animated ad has to load before I can navigate the page in order to, y&#039;know, read the entries.

I voted for threaded comments, mostly because I want to have the option to post a  comment that is not-quite-germane to the entry without feeling like a threadjacker. Also, I&#039;ve been using LiveJournal for 5+ years and have no problem posting multiple comments to the same entry, depending on whether I&#039;m responding to another commenter or to the original post. It&#039;s like being at a party and moving in and out of different conversations. *g* Just please don&#039;t go the Jezebel route in terms of format -- I&#039;m already weary of having to click-to-expand any comment longer than one line or any thread longer than one comment.</description>

		<description>Ads are fine if they&#039;re low-bandwidth and static:  no animation, no Flash, no popups, and please please please, nothing audible.  (PLEASE do not ever accept book trailers.) 

I dislike threaded comments.</description>

		<description>@&lt;a href=&quot;#comment-182611&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Jane&lt;/a&gt;: Oh, you mean this isn&#039;t your real job?  ;)

It&#039;s no big deal.  I&#039;ve waited this long.  I must say, Jane, you&#039;re amazingly productive - lawyering, reading, blogging, sewing, not to mention mothering and wife-ing.  It makes me tired just thinking about it!</description>
