Methodology

[gothwalk]

Do you read up through LJ, commenting as you go, or comment when you're finished reading?

Comments

A mix.

I tend to comment as I go, though sometimes I click the link to comment and put it in another tab and go through the rest of the posts first. It depends on how urgent or immediate the need to comment is.

In this case, your post was the most recent one, and the only new one snice I last loaded.

This is me, too. I'll usually leave the tab off to the side if I need to think about my reply for a bit.

I find it amusing that you can see who uses Mozilla or Opera and who uses IE by some of the comments below. :)

[nisaba.livejournal.com]

Pretty much ditto.

I open things to comment on in a new tab as I go through, then comment at the end, usually. I'm more careful if it's deep emotional stuff and I'm at skip $BIGNUM.

When reading my friends pages, I comment as I go. If I have a lot of time, I make more comments; if I have little, I don't comment at all. Occasionally I don't comment on something and I get a pestering in my mind until I go back to do it next time I'm on.

When it comes to my journal, I write out everything I want to say first, and if I have time, I respond to the comments left there. ;}

Commenting as I go.

[lonesomenumber1]

As the mood strikes me. I'm leaving this comment as I go.

I normally open up all the places I want to comment into new tabs (I love Mozilla), except when I think something is interesting enough that I want to reply NOW. Like in this case. ;)

I comment as I go - with a friends/reading list as big as mine, I'd never keep track of who I wanted to repsond to otherwise!

[cissa.livejournal.com]

I comment as I go, unless there's something I need to be thoughtful about.

You what? They how? *confused*

[silja.livejournal.com]

Unless I am looking at my friend's page for a particular reason (looking for a particular LJer who I hope has posted, or to see if a discussion has more comments), I comment as I go, opening a new tab for each comment so I don't have to use the forward and back buttons.

[sage-and-sea.livejournal.com]

I'm apparently odd; I comment at the end. I open everything in a new page that I want to review/make notes on, and finish up with that.

[wintersweet.livejournal.com]

If I didn't comment as I go no one would ever get comments. *G*

[oceacat.livejournal.com]

Add me to the "comment as I go" crew.

[bardiphouka.livejournal.com]

On the fly person..especially before I finish my first coffee..otherwise I would forget what I was supposed to go back to?

[malinaldarose.livejournal.com]

Usually comment as I go, otherwise I forget. Unless it's something that requires thought, in which case, I mark it for later.

[crimmycat.livejournal.com]

Usually I open that post in a new window (yeah, IE. I never really did like Opera) and move on down the friends list before answering, unless it's something that has immediate emotional impact or a deadline such as "who wants to do X tonight?"

[hisgreyeyes.livejournal.com]

I tend to put a batch of them aside - say, everything I want to comment on from skip=25 to skip=75 - answer them in a lump, and then go on to the next set. Because I'm at skip=225 or so every damn day - if I left it to the end I'd go insane.

[wyvernfriend.livejournal.com]

Usually comment as I go, tho there are times I comment later because something occurs to me as I'm reading other peoples entries.
(see it is possible for me to write something without exclimation marks.)

[gallowglass.livejournal.com]

I'm usually catching up on a backlog, so if I didn't comment as I go, by the time I get up to date, I'd most likely have forgotten which posts I wanted to comment on.

[natural20.livejournal.com]

Comment as I go, no question, as the slew of comments I've left on journals three days old should show :)

[slovobooks.livejournal.com]

Largely hit and run, on the occasions I actually remember to check LJ, which I can manage to forget to do for days, sometimes, odd as it may seem. This may have something to do with not working with a computer, unlike virtually everyone else.
