Okay, so this post isn't really much of an actual post, but just an update. I'm just here to tell you about our new spiffy comment system on CLS called livefyre. Obviously this helps because there will no longer be comments about how you should go and buy counterfeit clothing from various sites that are probably filled with spyware (DAMN SPAMBOTS). So gone is the good 'ole name+email+url box and in is the new livefyre comment system.

Some tips on Livefyre commenting

- For now, you can create an account using your twitter or facebook account. The Bloguin overlords are getting to syncing Bloguin accounts to livefyre, so when that happens, I will notify you guys on the most recent posts.

- So once you've created your account, you can comment right away- no wait period for comments. It's a relatively easy comment system to use- you can also post comments you've made to twitter or facebook as well, if you've made a comment so epic you want to share with everyone you can do it!

- For supported image sources, you can use Flickr, Twitpic, tinypic, and imgur for images. Just type in the URL and a thumbnail of the picture will show up. As for just doing it the old fashioned way and grabbing the url, it's not gonna work (you can still post the URL of the pic and they can click on it for the picture, just using the supported image sources is much easier).

- Supported video sources are vimeo and youtube.

I suggest you sign up for the Livefyre comment section so you can comment here and on all the other bloguin sites, which have been updated with the new Livefyre comment system. I've got mod powers, and I know how to use them. Commenting guidelines are simple- don't troll or be a douchecanoe and/or penisloaf (which means Matt Cooke, Sean Avery, Patrick Kaleta and Pierre McGuire are all banned on principle) and I won't hit you with the banhammer. It's as simple as that.

So pretty much... yeah. Enjoy the new comment system or what not.
