June 12, 2008, 06:47 PMIt's a pity that the CP forum is so "asleep". It has much better forum features.
The forum system here is not very powerful: e.g. no possibility to see the new posts since the last visit, no search, etc.

June 14, 2008, 12:34 AMSeems like CPOD has no guidelines on what goes on a lesson comment. Some of the commentary would fit better in a forum.
I'd vote for keeping the lesson comments on the lesson topic and directly related material.
If there's a separate idea, it might be time for a new thread?
Then again, do what you want to do, you will anyway...in fact, I think I'll go blog something over on the Tiananmen lesson.

June 12, 2008, 04:28 AMIt was the vortex of the Community. Now it fell asleep as everybody gathers here. There is just no way to follow more than one or two CPod community channels. I recently weeded out about 30 spam entries so it doesn't look all too worn off.
