New TLF Comment Tool (Please Read!)

Thu, 14 Aug 2008 18:01:02 PDT
Ahoy, TLFers! You’ll notice that we’ve incorporated a new comment management system on the blog: Pronounced “discuss” (not “discus” as one might well assume–a potential branding problem indeed for an otherwise promising start-up), Disqus has exploded in the last few months (Google Trends) to over 25,000 blogs. Disqus should help the TLF become even more of a true community–in which comments can be as valuable as blog pieces themselves and in which the line between “reader” and “author” is

Mets 8, Marlins 6: When this weekend's series started, the Mets trailed the Marlins and the Phillies. Now they trail only the Phillies.

Daniel Murphy hit his first Major League home run in the critical three-run sixth. That rally helped Scott Schoeneweis become the pitcher of record.
