There is no back button that will take you back to the Tidbits where you came from, after you have made your comments to a posting.

I like the 5000 character thing! I can see the desperation and sorrow in your pleading message Steve. I feel your pain my friend. Or I will... when I finally get around to writing my discussion board.. Then nobody posts on it. My goodness I'm about to cry just thinking about it! Who thinks I should quit my job? (starting a discussion here)
A little patience

I've put this new feature in my site, but I had to wait a lot of time till people started to contribute. Some tips to have more comments:
1. Write something that people hate (you'll have a lot of comments):-)
2. If you use a database, put in your web page the number of comments each entry has (it's frustating to click in "read comments" and find nothing.
3. If you can have some sofisticated web programming, put below each note in your email an image the number of comments. It should be updated when there's news comments (the image returned must be a database query) .
4. Remove this boring 500 char limit.

Keep on the good work.
