Comment space for columns?

A suggestion was made here the other day in a comment by Shirley Wofford:

“David, how about setting up a permanent, little space on your blog devoted to comments on your newspaper columns? Those of us who have resisted social networking would then be able to give you some feedback.”

I can see two ways this could be accomplished: I could post links here to my columns, either as they are published or to all three in one weekly post; or I could write an all-purpose “responses sought” post each week for general feedback.

(Either way could save, say, the Restaurant of the Week post from receiving comments on random subjects, archived permanently.) If someone has other ideas, I’m open to them.

The main question is, does anyone other than Shirley think this is worthwhile? Do you want to be able to discuss my columns here?

This came up once before and people preferred my column and blog be kept semi-separate; then again, this was before we moved to Facebook commenting on dailybulletin.com and the responses here were from only a half-dozen people. (I should note, too, that there are now other ways to sign in to comment on dailybulletin.com that don’t involve Facebook.)
