For more than a year I’ve been wanting to get rid of the pop-up window and move the comments into the individual posts. Lack of time and concentration, plus a level of Low in the priority list, have pushed this change to today. I know this is a black and white situation, where people either hate or love having the comments in a pop-up window and hate or love having them in the post itself (“inline” for those interested in the technical term). So it is with utter dictatorial power that I have decided to get rid of the comment pop-up. Two technical reasons drove this decision: One, to streamline the MovableType backend with less templates to worry about and, two, the CGI script that makes the comments work was gorging on our bandwidth and CPU minutes. So there you have it.
Nice work, Armin. I like it very much.

I wonder if this will cut-down on extra clicks site-users resort to which result in a single comment being posted twice.
