I’ve only commented a few times, because I think your blog posts tend to be more complete essays than the open ended questions other blogs raise. Take a look at the volokh conspiracy for example; relatively few posts there are as complete as yours; and the posts that are complete are about controverisal issues so they get comments anyway.

Starting a Twitter feed is an interesting idea, but for some unknown reason, I’ve been doing my best to avoid Twitter in general. Maybe I just don’t like things that are popular…

As a law interested layperson. I’ve not commented as I’m not sure I can add much value.

Your blog in many instances tends to be very technical. While great for learning, it isn’t conducive to a discussion in comments.

I notice a lot of the posts here don’t ask many questions but pose thoughts on how trials, judges, and the judicial process works. Having questions posted at the end (like this one) will help. I also think you should set up a Twitter feed. A lot easier to reply to @brownandlittle for example then having to put in my name, email, website and post.

I don’t have any great ideas on how to get more people to comment. What’s your traffic like?
