If you defer the decision long enough...
...then someone might implement the feature for you. In surfing around, I recently found out about creating “subreddits”, which are subdomains of reddit.com. I learned this when I saw Joel Spolsky’s weblog had a “Discuss” link that submitted the item to joel.reddit.com instead of hosting comments on his own weblog. I think this is a good idea, so you’ll notice that I’ve done the same here. This is especially helpful, given that in order to add comments to this weblog, I either have to build the feature myself or migrate my content to TextPattern or one of its ilk.
The next time someone insists you need a doubtful feature, ask them to choose something more important first. By the time you get to the doubtful feature, you might have discovered that someone’s built it for you!
