In a previous posting,
I covered an attempt to streamline the Blogware UI. Rather than state
my opinion on the change, I asked for yours, and got lots of responses,
all saying the same thing: bad idea.
Comments in Blogware now work this way…
If an entry has no comments, you’ll see this at the end of the entry:
If an entry has comments, you’ll see this at the end of the entry:
where n is the number of comments posted for the article.
You’ll still have to click on the permanent link for the article to see
the trackbacks, but we believe that comments are generally of more
interest to more people. The general idea is to stramline the
interface, making it a simple as possible, but no simpler.
Thank you for your feedback. It’s what helps us make our software better!

Very nice. Very nice. Nice to see Blogware is responsive to user feedback.
Truly an example of 'If it ain't broke, don't fix it'.
Now something worth fixing would be how wacky your site renders in Safari...
Looking into that. I'm the only one involved with Blogware who uses a Mac as his primary machine, so the developers don't notice things unless I send them screen shots, which I'll do more often.
I'm also looking into why the WYSIWYG editor refuses to work under Safari. It works under Mozilla/Mac OS X, so it should be possible. I'm currently using my developer schmooze powers to talk to the Safari development team.
Keep those cards and letters coming!
What about putting trackbacks inline with comments, and in the "by" line put "via trackback" or something? Just to simplify things further.
We talked about it, but trackbacks contain a lot less "data" than comments. I mean, a trackback usually contains an excerpt which (at least in the mockups I did) looked really dumb when mingled with the comments. And then comes the issue of replying to trackbacks via another comment...
In principle, I still want to do it, but we haven't devoted sufficient processing time to working through all of the niggly issues...
