I've probably mentioned an untold number of times that I spend a lot of time reading comments that are attached to anything I read or research on the Internet. Somehow this really works for me. I come away with a context that becomes another pointer to the knowledge I store, but that's the least of it. So often, I find the most extraordinary information placed there by passers through — things that influence me more that the article they are attached to. True also, the comments can reveal interesting new trends and topics, and every once in awhile a fascinating participant will stand out who I'll remember to look for next time I return.
