What is the best way to respond to comments? Responding to each one via email (which is what I currently do), respond inline on the comments page, responding on the comments page AND emailing the response, or not responding at all? I am curious what people find to be the best solution and what they personally do!
So here’s a list of what I’ve added to this incarnation of OSN so far:
- Live comment preview
- Social bookmarking links on every entry
- Search area
- Why I Love blog
- Snippets blog
- Wee additions to the posted comments
- Recent comments on red sidebar
I will probably be adding more stuff in the next few days as well!
I would very much appreciate any suggestions for tutorials I could write up, any entries I could write for subjects that aren’t large enough for a full fledged tutorial, or anything else in general for that matter!

Commenting Guidelines
BasicsOnce your comment is posted it then is the property of OSN. I can edit, format, reuse or delete the comment as I wish, or display it for as long as I wish. I will not necessarily offer reasons or any warning why I have altered or deleted a comment.
Occasionally your comment might be held for moderation, it's not done on purpose, but sometimes WordPress might be confused, I will manually approve your comment as soon as I can, and apologize for the delay.
Email AddressesCorrect email addresses are required. Email addresses will never be published. Email addresses will not be shown in comments. Please leave your correct email address (as in youNOSPAM@domain.com or youREMOVE@domain.com are not correct) it is so I have the ability to reply to your comment via email. I will edit out the NOSPAM or REMOVE in the email field.
What is not acceptableProfanity, poor spelling and grammar, personal attacks, and off-topic comments.
AvatarsThe avatars that are shown are via Gravatar. If you do not have one associated with your email address it will show a default image, however I suggest you sign up to get one since many blogs use this feature!
Commenting Additions You light use the following mark-up within your comments. I only permit XHTML mark-up at this time. Line breaks are converted automatically.(<em> <del> <strong> <pre> <code> <blockquote>)

I respond via email. When visitors comment, the comment is emailed to me and I email them if I have to.
It depends on how much time and inclination you have. Personally, I like hearing back from the blogger through email if I have left a question or some comment worthy of a response. I visit so many sites everyday, it would hard for me to go back to that ONE site to see the response I got.
