Just in case you are counting opinions...
I've often wondered why your blog has comments arranged this way. It seems to me to give the impression that you are hiding the comments. I assume that isn't your intent, but I'm just telling you how I react to it.
You can't tell whether there are any comments unless you open the Discuss link. And if you happen to be looking at any day other than the current day, it seems that you have to first open the day in question, then open the Discuss link. As a result, I find I only go looking for comments here if I'm really, really curious about whether anyone has responded to something you wrote. On many other blogs, the fact that there are comments on a post is immediately evident while you are reading the post, and if the comments aren't displayed by default, you usually can get to them in one click. I find that much more to my liking.
Arrange your blog in whatever way you like -- I'm not trying to tell you how to run it. I'm just writing to let you know how it feels to me, in case you never realized it can give that impression.
