Major issue in the static blog:
There no comments, and if you want comments, they're not owned by you.
I read there's some local comment servers being written (ie you cleanly separate the blog static content and the dynamic comments), but i've yet to see a "mainstream one that just works" (tm).
- stevekemp 14y agoI wrote chronicle which handles this via a CGI. Comments are dumped into text-files and they are included in the rebuild. That means there is a lag and a rebuild needed to publish them, but it works for me & my blog: http://blog.steve.org.uk/ http://blog.steve.org.uk/
- roberto 14y agoI'm writing my own blog engine after Posterous' announcement. The way it works is that I create a static site which is upload somewhere, and it also publishes the post on Facebook and Twitter. Discussion happens there, on the social networks, and on the next build the comments are downloaded and stored in static files. This way when Facebook dies all the discussions will remain on the static site -- for good or bad. :-P

- an00na 14y agoIt's easy to add Disqus. But if you think you don't own comments in Disqus, it is a problem.
