Define irony: Posting a blog article about how social media is about trial and error, then, soon after, you made an error with your own.

That’s kind of how it went down on Friday, the day after we put up When Your Fans Turn Against You. I had the opportunity to speak with Susie Hall at Aquent, the organization whose Facebook activity was the subject of that article. While we were pleasantly surprised by their openness and receptiveness towards bettering their efforts, we ended up finding a shortcoming on our end.

If you have wanted the opportunity to post a comment on the TOG Solutions blog, you have likely found it difficult to do so. And that was because we asked you to log in.

Log in to what, you ask? Well, since we use WordPress for our site, anyone who has an account with WordPress.com would have no problem posting a comment. Those with no such credentials? It would have been a problem. Plus, from what we could tell, it looked to be kind of hard to figure out how to go about getting an account.

So, to fix that, we’ve went ahead on our end and did away with the need for you to have a WordPress.com account for comments. So, if there was an post that you wanted to weigh in on, we encourage you to do so.
