I’m trying to make it easier to reply to my posts, but of course I don’t want to lose all my existing comments. So I’ve added the Google+ comments code before the native WordPress system. You can choose to use either but I’d like some thoughts from you as to how this feels. The benefits I see from Google+ comments:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Looks nice. Clean UI, and the color scheme sits well with my site.<\/li>\n
  2. Comment threading was getting out of hand with nested replies. This is a “flat” structure that actually might work well<\/li>\n
  3. No need to wait for the page to reload. The box grows automatically.<\/li>\n
  4. Maybe easier to build a community…?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Like I said, you can use the existing system as well if you just scroll down. What do you think? Do you prefer the old one? Do you mind the Google+ being placed first? Or should I put it at the end instead? Just throwing around ideas here so help me out!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
