		<description>I like "Your Voice" too! And your screenshots are a great addition to the how-to. 

I thought of a comments "policy" title for my page, but it may be a little long for my sidebar: Invitation to Conversation. Of course, I haven't yet begun writing anything for it. ;)</description>

		<description>Claire, thanks! I think we should invest in phrased that are catchy and inviting visitors to click to see what's out there! Have you come up with something to your blog?</description>

		<description>Thanks, Kate -- no need to get out of your pajamas for blog comments, right?

Greetings, Seth.
It's nice to have you here and feel free to adapt as much as you need.
I am still mulling it all over myself.
Take care

		<description>Well, Hi there Kevin!

I just heard about the comment challenge and was led to your blog by a (great) virtual colleague, Carla Arena.

I thought I'd do my bit in the spirit of the comment challenge and leave a comment on a blog I've never commented on (or read ) before.

I'd just like to say that I &lt;i&gt;really&lt;/i&gt; like your comments policy. What a great, humanistic, encouraging way to draw your readers into interaction. I love it. 

If I decide to adapt a comments policy, I might (if you don't mind) loosely base a comments policy for my blog around what you've written.

Keep up the great work!

		<description>Just found this great post from you Kevin. You've gone and turned 'policy' on its ear (which is where all such things belong) and set the tone for your guests's contributions. 

Good stuff.
PS Too late for Seesmic. I'm wearing the second-best pyjamas! :-)</description>

		<description>I like that concept of "your voice," Carla, and may come up with variation of it.
It seems given that the moniker of "policy" hits many of us the wrong way, I think.
Thanks for leaving comments
