The rules included as follows:

Here are some of them:

2) Don’t write in ALL CAPS (we don’t like screaming)
3) No links
4) Use your real name

The blog ended with a total of 793 comments.

Love this live blog idea, but having to refresh my browser to see the new comments is going to be a pain. Oh well. Thanks for hosting this, Jack. Is there no way for you to feed your updates to your Twitter account?
