n. Blogs. A feature that allows readers to publicly respond to blog entries. Commenting can be open to all blog visitors or restricted to designated individuals. Comments are often moderated in an attempt to control comment spam and, on some blogs, unwelcome comments. Comments are sometimes threaded, allowing visitors to comment on specific comments.
