The One Most of You Can Skip [Working Title]

The Internet's greatest asset as a social tool is its ability to simultaneously allow users to be anonymous, yet onymous. Pseudonymity, once the pretense of literary atychiphobics, is now the favored bloviation tool for everyone from Publius to Perez Hilton.

But did you know that you too can wax philosophic under a semi-clever name of your choice, be it "Muffintopless", "YouHadMeAtHalo", "BabysatByPolanski", or "Steve"?

By popular singular demand, here is a quick tutorial on navigating the Comments section of Scotticus Finch:

First, select the Name/URL option from the drop-down menu.

Next, enter the name of your choice. Ignore the URL section; that's far too advanced for you.

Finally, jabber away. This ain't Twitter, so there is no 140-character limit. (But for the record, anything more than about three sentences triggers my fight-or-flight. Sheesh, get your own blog!)

That's all there is to it. Now stand up and be heard with no possibility of accountability whatsoever! It's why Al Gore invented this crazy series of tubes!
