New Way To Comment Back

Today at The Curious Pug I saw this post about Comments and Commenting Back. I really enjoy receiving comments and I really-really-really appreciate them all, but as Alycia says:

"I've been really making an effort to

reply back to your comments."

The most common ways I've used until now to respond back to your comments are:

1. If you comment using your blogger account, and you provide an email address somewhere in your account, I just copy it and your comment and you get an email with my response. 

2. I visit your blog and find a post to comment back on.
3. I reply in my comments, but you won't know I have, unless you come back to see. Otherwise, if you have clicked on the "Subscribe by email" link next to the "Post Comment" button, you will get an email for each subsequent comment for that post.

Either way, it's too difficult to keep track of all the comments back and forth and usually you won't know I have replied to you. Wouldn't be nice to have a more interactive way?

So, after reading many of the replies to her post -Epiphany!- the solution was right there! I signed up to Intense Debate, installed their widget and a new form of interactive comments is a reality! That way you can get notified whenever I reply to your comments and we can build up some sort of conversation.

I don't know yet if this works, so I would appreciate it if you test it for me by just leaving me a comment and I'll try to comment back to see what happens.

Thank you so much!
