Commenting Workaround

I checked today and was happy to see this update from the Known Issues blog:

Users are seeing errors when posting comments with current Blogger accounts to blogs on the new version of Blogger in beta. Until we fix this, the workaround is to preview the comment before publishing. (You only need to preview once per account.) Update (9/13): This issue has been re-written to clarify the core bug and offer the workaround.

What this means to you: If you're logged in as a blogger who has not switched (which is the majority of my readership), click the "Preview" button once you've finished writing your comment (circled at right). When your comment appears highlighted in yellow on the left-hand side, click the orange "Publish Your Comment" button. I will receive and moderate your comment normally.

And the great news is, you should only have to do this extra step once for your Blogger account! Now if they'd just fix it the rest of the way, so I can comment on your blogs just as easily...
