Blogger Blog Now allows E-mail Subscription of Follow up Comments

Yesterday i wrote about how you can redirect your domain name without www to one with www prefix on blogger blog, and today another interesting feature has been rolled into Blogger blogs, you can now subscribe to Comments follow up via Email for Blogger blogs, only limitation is thatyou should have blogger account to get these email updates, and it won't work for users not using blogger account, unlike wordpress which does allow email feed for anyone providing an email address.

This feature though will help both Bloggers and readers, Bloggers can expect more returning visitors and Readers can get feedback for their comments which always gives great satisfaction to readers and they may get involved in more discussions on the blog.

other feature i would personally like to see on blogger is to have Comment Submission form on the Same page of the post, like wordpress. This will add to more people commenting on Blogger Blog posts.

I have previously on some of my blogs used a javascript hack for posting comments under every post on homepage of a blogger blog, and it does increases the percentage of visitors commenting on your posts.
