To me being the president is an overwhelming responsibility, I wonder if anyone can measure to the responsibility. As for Obama, he promises change and I for one hope he follows through and those are not simply campaign promises.

Hi Ursula, the link in the email should bring you back to the top of the qwidget. if you are autosigned in (which you can choose to be next time you sign in), the qwidget will automatically open. From there, you have to click the "messages" link. we're aware that the link is WAY too small right now. we're working on making it easier to see and maybe even getting a mailbox logo next to it. however, it isn't technically possible at this point to link directly to your inbox from the email notification you get.

I'm trying to reply to WickedRB's reply to my comment, but clicking on the link in the e-mail brings me Here. Shouldn't I be able to see my comment and her reply above this field? Also, comments below this field are off topic. I thought that would be threaded out. Also, I registered but site doesn't recall having met me before.

my answer is YES, and a big NOOO! to the idea that he can't change things.

It's different because with comments, there is no guidance. with the qwidget you were directed as far as what you were supposed to talk about. the unstructured nature of comments ends up discouraging people from participating because in the split second after they read the website's content, they have to decide what kind of thing to say, and most people just click away before they have to come up with something interesting. with the qwidget, we slowly guide people into conversations by making the first step a simple yes/no/maybe. then we ask why. also, by limiting everyone to 200 characters, we'll never get long winded rants that turn off other more casual users. and by limiting people to one entry/answer, we won't get flame wars between a few users who argue on and on in one comment section.

Just testing the comment feature. How is this different than answering the question???
