But right now, it&rsquo;s not for me.</p> <p>The one thing I miss about blogging with a static-site generator is the lack of native comments. It&rsquo;s the one thing self-hosted WordPress (aka <a href="http://wordpress.org">WordPress.org</a>) gets right.</p> <p>It&rsquo;s probably because WP was &ldquo;doing&rdquo; comments before Twitter and Facebook came along. Back then, social <em>was</em> comments.</p>
