The following are a couple of reminders about writing effective comments:
1. Acknowledge the author of the blog post.
2. Let the author know what part of their post your are responding to and why. If you agree or disagree with a point you are making, let them know that too.
3. One word comments, or short responses such as “I agree” or “That’s cool” comments are not useful.
4. Be appropriate and polite in your responses.
5. Successful responses are several sentences in length. Be thoughtful!
