Five Rules for Blog Commenting

Commenting on someone else's blog post is simple: read the post, write your comment, type your name, and click Submit. Doing it WELL takes practice.

1. Read the post carefully.
2. Consider its strengths and weaknesses.
3. Start with the strengths.
4. If you have something nice to say, say it--and give specifics.
5. If you have criticism, say it nicely.(Constructive criticism is helpful, not vindictive)(Solomon,29)
