We’ve been adding a few more bits to VB (got a little bored of typing VentnorBlog too!), with the most recent being displaying the latest comments that have been added to posts on the Blog.
They’re sitting in the right hand column and if you hover your mouse over the name of the person who posted the comment, you’ll see the name of the original story and the date it was published.
Clicking the name will take you direct to the comment, enabling you to read the post and, if so driven, add your own comment.
Of course this will never replace the Forum discussions, but comments give you the ability to add your thoughts direct to each story.
