Finding Treasure in the Comments

treasure chest

I found this little gem from Rachel Cornell in the comments to my pirate ship post:

…Here is yet another reason why it’s smart to build relationSHIPS not little relation-dinghies. RelationSHIPS are well designed to withstand troubled waters; dinghies will capsize easily.

Thanks matey for such a great topic,
Rachel

How clever is that? RelationSHIPS versus relation-dinghies.

When she’s not burying treasure in my comments section, Rachel blogs here.

ChrisBrogan.com runs on the Thesis Theme for WordPress

Thesis WordPress theme

Thesis is the search engine optimized WordPress theme of choice for serious online publishers. If you’re a blogger who doesn’t understand a lot of PHP, Thesis will give a ton of functionality without having to alter any code. For the advanced, Thesis has incredible customization possibilities via Thesis hooks.

With so many design options, you can use the template over and over and never have it look like the same site. The theme is robust and flexible enough not only to accommodate a site like ChrisBrogan.com, but also to enable the site to run far more efficiently than it ever has before.

  • Yay treasure in comments! And yay you, Chris, for reading all the comments (which is something I notice a lot of people don't do, or at least they don't follow-up about them)!
  • Very clever of Rachel and sooooooooooooo true. Maybe we should launch a snack food for genuine online friends and call it...

    Relation-Chips ;-) Just a thought!

    Such a great concept and absolutely true. Real relationships stand the test of time and in troubled waters. Online relationships can be as fickle as high school love interests. Bloggers and companies that get this, do much better in the long-term.

    Great golden nugget :-)
  • Great tip.
  • Wow, is that a treasure-chest-shaped CAKE?? You must be quite the accomplished baker.

    I so completely agree about the comments and the value there. This is a bit recursive (haven't used that word legitimately since programming classes in the '90s), but I'm testing my new comment aggregation tool for the first time with this very comment. If it works out well, I'm going to somehow incorporate my comments and others' comments into my own little attempt at "web immortality", whatever that may eventually evolve to be.

    Thanks for good words.
