How to Post Comments That Work

We have finally found imortality.

While this might not apply to our bodies, it does apply to our comments.

The comments that you leave on blogs will last forever, maybe longer.

These comments also tell a lot about you. If you plan to be a respected member of a social media system, the impression that you leave can matter. After all, who helps a jerk?

Here are simple guidlines:

1) Be positive.

Find something good to note, and write about that. Otherwise, leave nothing.

2) Be brief.

Use as few words as possible, unless, of course, you're offering praise.

3) Be careful.

Proof read your comment before pressing Submit. Make sure that you included all the words that you intended. And fix any typos.

4) Be creative.

Find a different insight to instruct, entertain, or inform.

5) Be honest.

Never leave spam. It can result in being banned from leaving more comments.

6) Be authenic.

Use your real name. If you're afraid to tell who you are, log off.
