How do I enable comments on my blog?

Then select the Show radio button and click Save Settings:
Once Comments are enabled, several more settings appear:

Who Can Comment?

How do I automatically email a post after I've written it?

Each of your blog posts can be automatically sent to a given email address, using our BlogSend feature. To configure this, go to Settings | Email:
Then enter your email address:
Notes:

• BlogSend will only send email to a single address, so multiple addresses entered here will not receive the updates. If you want to send updates to more than one address, you will need to create a mailing list. You can use a service such as Google Groups to do this. Then just enter the mailing list address in the BlogSend setting.
