I dunno, just seems to be a pain to me :) You should put up a poll on the front page and see what others think. I am usually in the minority about these things ;) Mike could always open up 2 windows I guess, so you can watch the video on one and scan comments on the other.

It'd be a challenge if one is trying to reply to content and forgets what it is, goes back and then comes back again (the going back and forth would be annoying although it's good that the comments keep what you've written thus far). Even for a minor blog I still say it's worthwhile to pay for decent service. As time goes on, it does add up. At 200 people a week, that works out to about 10,000+ visits a year. For a small blog, that does add up over time. So kudos to the host move and finding a good provider. :) Nice layout and the comment location is interesting.

It takes a little getting used to but I like that its a little different from most blogs. The only drawback that I've seen is that if a video is playing, that video will stop when you change pages to view comments. Can't listen and scan comments. The Theme is actually set up so that I can easily change the way the comments work (just a matter of click a radio button). If the comments become a problem I'll shift them back to the traditional style. Mike,

I dont care for how the comments work - you have to click the comments bubble rather than having it at the bottom of the post, when you click on the post to read it, but other than that it looks nice!
