It Worked!
Thank you, Dave Winer (& Bryan Bell), for this colorful new weblog.
It reminds me of the Kennedy Library blurb on an MBTA brochure, “Isn’t it ironic that the guy who fought communism has a stop on the Red Line?” So my Radio weblog is now my blue line and my earlier weblogs are… well, they are probably best forgotten.
Another irony to be launching this “Harvard.edu” address in my last week on the faculty of Emerson College!

Well, Bob, you didn’t give me very many blog posts to give you a comment to delete. Here’s how:
1) Make sure you’re logged in as the editor.
2) Go to the discussion group portion of the site (through the discuss link in the editor’s menu or some other way).
3) Select either the comment you want to delete (but you have to know the number) or the blog post that has the comment you want to delete. (The comments only show up as separate links in the Chronological View.)
4) If you’re coming in from the Chronological View, when you get to a comment, there should be a box at the bottom of the page that has the option to delete the message. (Make sure you’re
deleting a message and not a news item.) Select the delete option and click submit. You should get a dialog box asking if you’re sure you want to delete the comment. Click what’s appropriate and continue. If you click yes, you should get the option to undelete the comment.
From the Topics View, select the news item that has the undesired comment. Scroll down to the comment. Click on “Comment on this Page.” At the bottom of that page is a dialog box to delete the message. Choose what’s appropriate and click “Submit.” Then select what’s appropriate in the next dialog boxes. The “Edit this page” option also has a “delete this message” feature, but it may not work because of a bug.
Good luck!
And, yes, you can delete this comment as a test.
