Comments

Out of the blue I decide that each 2-59 video has to have a poll or rating system and viewers comments.

Naturally I Google how to do it. Now you'd think the answer would be oh so easy. But no.

First off, I was looking for a plug in or feature for GoLive - the software I use to create the 2-59 site. Wrong. There's nothing.

My frst find is a free "comment" script. I download it - it fully of techie goobley gook. Says add this to your SQL database. No I won't. SQL means trouble. Not for me, this is too raw.

Next, I find The Commenter - it's only $19.95. The website says © 2008, which is a worry. Their demo lets you add a photo but not one from your computer. Can't add videos. Overall it seems cranky - bad vibes. Just not "it." I hate it.

Then I find a comment program from Cube software, all full of nice colors - looks more pro. However it's $39 and in the community section there are people asking for refunds.

There's a box on the site that says watch the video but there's no video. Huh? There are people on the support section complaining that there's no documentation. Do I really want to give this developer in Montenegro my $39? No I don't.

Then I discover ECHO. They give you a 30 day trial for free. Good. The © is 2010. It's used by big names.

Go to bed at midnight after putting comment boxes to every page and then posting my own comments. Great!

Please write a comment on 2-59.com. Thanks.
