For every train there's a passenger, but it turns out comments are not our train.
Over the years we read thousands of comments we've received on our blog posts on the Google
Webmaster Central blog. Sometimes they were extremely thoughtful, other times they made us
laugh out loud, but most of the time they were off-topic or even outright spammy; if you think
about it, the latter is rather ironic, considering this is the Google Webmaster Blog.
Effective today, we're closing the commenting feature on the Google Webmaster Central blog.
Instead of reading the comments here on the blog, we're going to focus on interacting with the
community on our other channels. For all of our subsequent posts, if you have comments,
feedback, or funny stories, you can find us in our
help forums
or on Twitter.
