I was wondering whether I should allow comments for my blog. Then I came across
Raymond Chen's blog (Raymond Chen is a long-time Microsoft employee). His blog is very popular and attracts a lot of comments; not all of them positive, it seems.
One particular post descended into a Linux/Windows flame war in which Raymond was taken to the woodshed by a quite-knowledgeable Linux hacker,
forcing Raymond to close commenting on this article before things got out of hand.
I guess I'll sit quietly until the urge goes away.
