@indiescripter Thanks for the explanation! It's great to hear this feedback from people new to #indieweb. Your point about your expectation of being able to like or comment on the post directly on my website is interesting. I took the comment box off of my website a long time ago, with no regrets. I like that it encourages people to write replies in a space of their own. (Ideally on their own website, but at the very least from their own Twitter account). However, it would be interesting to see what would happen if I let people "like" posts directly on my website, even if they don't have their own website yet. Maybe I'll do that for one of the 100 days!

Wait a second? Did you already do just that Aaron?! Or am I just not remembering you had that functionality before?

@aaronpk @indiescripter Another option to encourage others to post their replies on their own sites rather than directly on yours, you could provide a URL box and details for people to webmention you indirectly (especially if they don't support Webmention yet). See the comment section at the bottom of http://boffosocko.com/2016/12/28/homebrew-website-club-los-angeles-notes-december-28-2016/ for an example or see https://github.com/pfefferle/wordpress-webmention-form for some sample code. I think I've yet to have someone take advantage of the option, but my IndieWeb heart feels warm for providing it as an encouraging option. For additional ideas, see: http://indieweb.org/web_actions
