I’m on Holiday at the moment and loving every minute of it! During the Weekend, I’ve decided to add a little something to my blog and installed a new feature which somewhat gives back to those who comment on my blog. I’ve added the Top Commentators feature which lists the top 10 people who have commented on posts within my blog throughout it’s existance. At the moment, I’ve got laserlight with 11 comments.
I came accross laserlight back in the day when I was still trying to find a forum to hang out after work or over the weekend. I ended up at PHP Builder and had posted a few comments and tried to be part of their community. I think what turned me off PHP Builder was that the members that they had were slightly cliquey and were not as friendly as the ones at SitePoint. At the time, they also had some very big trolls. But that I Imagine would have been in the past.
It would have been great to keep in touch with her, she had some brains about her. Hopefully she’s doing well.
So the way Top Commentators works is that it keeps count of those who comment on my blog posts by using email addresses, does a calculation and then displays the top ten people who have been commenting on the home page and each of the pages on my blog, with a back link to their website.
Hopefully, this will encourage my followers on twitter and the rvdavid my blog log community members to get involved and participate in leaving comments on some of the blog posts that I write.
This is my way of providing a window of appreciation for everyone who contributes to my blog posts. So thank you in advance, and thank you to the regular visitors who keep an eye out for my blog. You guys are great!
