More Fantastic Comments Please

April 21, 2006 4:09 PM

"Fantastic comments" make good reading. Why can I only read the last ten? Is it just a technical issue, or is there a worry that a permanent archive will result in competition?

(and if so, is competition that encourages people to write fantastic comments really such a bad idea?)

fantastic comments is a 15 minute hack I setup for demo purposes. I'm replacing it with a favorites system that will let you see most favorited comments over time periods to basically do the same thing, but better (across all sites, etc).

Agreed! Bumping up the number of visible AskMe fantastic posts and comments would be great.

I thought we'd gone back to calling them "bookmarks."

Fiddlesticks!
