Today I finished with adding new features to this blog. The most important feature is the possibility that you can add comments on the posts, without registering to the blog. I choose Cryptographp plugin, and I am satisfied with it, for now. Several weeks ago I add PostRatings plugin, you may noticed it at the end of the posts. It is interesting Ajax functionality.
