I'd been reading your site for a few weeks before I realized they were recycled comments. I like the idea of culling the ones that read like little essays. I just assumed that was your goal.
Plus, having a blog on its own domain is easier than giving everyone a link to http://news.ycombinator.com/threads?id=edw519 http://news.ycombinator.com/threads?id=edw519, which is awkward, and which includes the clutter of shorter comments, other people's comments, up/down arrows, etc.
1. When I read, I'm interested in an author, not an author's readers. (But the links back to HN are good in case I want that.) As in the last paragraph of this article: http://daringfireball.net/2010/06/whats_fair http://daringfireball.net/2010/06/whats_fair
2+3. I prefer reading one post at a time, with a straightforward ToC. Tags are distracting. If I'm looking for a post on a certain topic, I use a search engine.
4. Even if the title's lame at first, it can become cool if comes to stand for something good.
