I don’t get as many hits as Chris from folks looking for the political science rumor blogs, but I thought I’d provide a related public service announcement in the interest of political science productivity.
It seems that the rumor blogs can suck a lot of potentially productive time from candidates and faculty. If you find yourself checking the rumor blog comment threads more than once a day, I suggest using either co.mments or co.comment to track the comments. I prefer the former, but understand that the latter has more market share. Each will require a little time to set up your comment tracking but not nearly as much time as obsessively re-checking the rumor sites for new entries.
Good advice. It’d be nice too if Blogger did RSS feeds of comments like the other major blogging systems do.
