Yet another fine Sci-Fi web site

[livejournal.com profile] kevin_standlee posted an announcement of this fine web site which is all about sci-fi awards, and he posted with comments turned off, suggesting we leave comments on the site itself. Fine idea, except I don't see how to leave a comment there. One of the pages mentions a blog, but there are no links I can find. Like his recent Hugo Awards site, it's a clean, readable layout, tons of great info and more to come, and the writing style is friendly and educational at the same time. Check it out.

The blog is the blurbs that take up the bulk of the first page. Below each blurb there's an lj-like line that says "posted in..." and the last thing there should be "no comments" which is a link to adding comments, or, if there are comments, it will be the number of comments (e.g. "20 comments"). Click on whichever, and you'll get to add a comment and/or read any previous comments. Amazingly similar to LJ, excepting the use of the word "comment" instead of "reply".

And yes, most of that last reply was meant tongue-in-cheek (other than pointing it out). And yes, if you're not used to that kind of website, it's not immediately obvious.
