Blogging: Instant Discussion and Comment Systems

image One of the most irritating things I find on the web is the abundance of information, finding what you want or seeing a topic that really strikes my interest; something that draws me to want to get involved in the conversation or for me to drop my two cents in to the conversation, only to be hit in the face with ‘you must register to discuss’.
