I don't have any invitations to give or I'd totally do it. Are we supposed to be able to give out invitations? Man! I got ripped off! Or maybe you only get to invite others if you've commented a lot. I haven't very many times. Sorry.

You get your own username and pw if you're a commenter. I am, but at least half the time Gizmodo's (where I spend way too much time) comments thingy is awry. :P

I'm a Gawker commenter (thanks to an awesome DHer), but I swear after wanting it so bad, I've said like two things ever. The novelty wears off fast.

Yeah, I got my dander up for not having been invited when they first started (what the hell? I've been blogging in this frickin' city for five years! I run an all-blogger readings series? etc.) and once someone finally invited me I found I really don't do it much.

Apollonia: where do you blog?

i scan gawker every now and then
but prefer "pink is the new blog"
and that hack at "the superficial"

At uffish.com (it's in my profile).

i sit in front of a computer from 9-5 and spend half of my day reading useless garbage on the web. I thought you had to be invited to become a commentator?

Can anyone invite me?

(yeah, hi, i'm a loser)

You do, but just because you've been invited doesn't mean you automatically get to invite others, or else I'd be happy to do it for ya.

Isn't it gratifying enough to be able to post here?

It's certainly much friendlier and more relevant to *my* life!

No lie. If Gizmodo weren't a great way for keeping up on shiny shit, I wouldn't bother. Gawker is a black hole of human effort, IMO.

Hahahhahahhaha....'black hole'.


I do like the debates that rage on here. My neighbors are fun.
