• Discuss things that you have been reading/listening to/watching recently
• Share interesting links
• Share stimulating discussions in comment threads
• Ask questions
• Put forward a position for more general discussion
• Tell us about yourself and your interests
• Publicize your blog, book, conference, etc.
• Draw our intention to worthy thinkers, charities, ministries, books, and events
• Post reviews
• Suggest topics for future posts
• Use as a bulletin board
• Etc.

Over to you!

As I am currently taking a break both from standard blogging and from commenting, I won’t be participating in these threads for a few months.
