For several years, we had been on Wordpress for our blogs.
A year ago, we moved to our own Medley software.
Now, we are returning to Wordpress for the primary portion of the blog, but we are using a new way to comment that has greater functionality, courtesy of livefyre. You'll be able to reply to other people's comments. You'll have an option to show newest comments first or oldest comments first. You can now provide proper links again. You can flag comments. If too many people flag it, it will be automatically removed. (I can remove comments myself, of course.)
If a comment is particularly interesting, I have the option to "feature" a comment so it always ends up on top.
Please email me at rho@ajc.com if you are having any issues. I hope the transition in this case will be smoother than a year ago.
