The comments can be edited up to fifteen minutes after you make them. What I may want to do is actually make you all editors of the site so you can do the word annotations Brady was talking about. i will write a post about his, and see what everyone thinks. I’ll also post about the digital video stuff.

Thanks.

Maybe we can have Professors in the project nominate a post each week to be highlighted in the Announcements blog

The reason comments are set to be moderated by default is that having comments approved by default can lead to all sorts of spam. If we can set things up this way, I think that it would be good to set comments to being automatically approved when submitted by users with accounts (ie., our students), but moderated when they come from the outside.

I do think that many students don’t realize that first-time commenters need to have comments approved by defaut, so I’ve asked Claire to put together a little tutorial on that.

This may all be moot; while we can reset the settings on new blogs, I’m not sure that we can alter the settings on blogs already created.

Commenting directly on the site is processed through your Looking for Whitman account. (that, at least, is how I understand things to be)

Both our own project microblogging install and, as you say, an archive of #ww20 tweets.
