Speak up and let your voice be heard right here on Richmond.com. One of the best new features on our redesigned site is the comments section. I discussed in briefly in our Rblog last week and we've left hints on several stories for you to leave comments, but I am here to tell you that we really want you to comment on our stories and columns. It's a very easy way to start a conversation (or healthy argument).

At the bottom of every story on Richmond.com there is a comments section. All that is required is a name (you don't have to leave your last name if you don't want to), a comment and the answer to 2+2. Once you click "Add Comment," it appears the page has been reset. Have no fear! As long as you answered the question correctly, our editorial team has received a message that we have a new comment. Unless it's late at night, on a holiday or during the weekend, your comment will usually appear fairly quickly. An email address and URL are not required to leave comments. If you have a Web site, enter it into the "URL" field. Your name will then appear as a hyperlink to the proper site.

Now, onto a couple of more things you might not know about Richmond.com.

w Every Monday we have "Sound Off," a story that highlights concerts in the area throughout the week. Go here to check out what's going on the rest of this week.

w Everyone loves coupons, don't they? Richmond.com has its very own Coupons channel. Click here to check it out. From restaurants to art galleries to hotels, there's something there for everyone.

"Did You Know?" is a new weekly feature highlighting various aspects of Richmond.com. Is there something you want to know about our Web site? Have you had trouble finding things and need to be pointed in the right direction? Leave a comment below and look for answers in next week's column.

Silver, I'm delighted to see you're involved. I've never met you, but I wholly support your 6 hour workweek movement!

Yeah, this is a good idea. That way the community can help tell the full story. I enjoyed Dionne's Council report this week but she left out some significant features (a couple of firsts)that I hope to address in response to her column tonight.

I'll do my part to help improve your site, educate citizens, and create more valuable content. The upside for me is I get my name out there as a credible critic of the Council and Mayor. The upside for you is a more active and loyal readership which translates to more advertising revenues for richmond.com.

Thanks for the invitation. I encourage others to participate in the discussion as well.
