Connecting moms in Polk County, Fla.
Does anyone know how to comment on an article without signing in through FB or Yahoo, etc? I can no longer comment after articles without signing in somewhere. I would rather not have my comments on FB. I would rather just comment on the Ledger. I guess there's a way to comment and then hide the comments...but I am not sure.

From my understanding, you can make a comment under the article and either check the box or not check the box that makes your comments post to FB also
I don't know for sure if it still shows up on your activity or not. And boy, I checked out the activity section of my FB the other day and it seemed to list everything I've done almost to the point of how often I change underwear.
For some reason today, it didn't give me a choice to check a box or not for adding comments on Facebook. I remember it used to give me that option.
Instead of a plain "add comments" button to enter my comments it had "Add comments using the following" and when you click on it, a drop down menu comes up, and you have to choose Facebook, Yahoo, AOL, etc.
Weird....not sure why it changed but I don't like it!!
You could always create a ficticious FB account or an e-mail address you use for nothing other than posts, however some of your data (ISP and web address) would still be accessable to the IT department, law enforcement, etc. I am not sure why, since it is your first amendment right to free speach, you would want to hide your identity. Most of what I see is childish comments on articles written. In another words, a huge percentage of what is posted is rather personal attacks as opposed to a personal opinion, it seems like a lot of wasted energy reminiscent of high school drama :-)
I like to keep my FB pretty private. I don't post on there a lot. I do like to comment on Ledger articles sometimes though, and I would like to do so without all my friends and family seeing what I am saying...does that make sense?
In other words, I am not worried about "big brother" or whoever keeping tabs so much -just liked to keep things separate from FB. I have this one relative who can't let me post anything without contradicting me and it drives me up the wall.
