Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ

Last night, Ouch's blog - along with every blog on the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ's Blog Network - received an upgrade, and we're now being powered by some shiny new software. This means that this place will hopefully run faster and much more smoothly, and you won't feel the need to pop off and make a cup of tea when trying to post a comment. Hurrah.

However, as part of the upgrade, you will now need to register to post comments here. It's a once-only process though, and really very quick - plus, once you're done you can comment on any Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ blog, from Radio 1 DJs to sports editors to, well, us here on Ouch! Also, if you're already a member of the messageboard community here on Ouch or on any other Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ sites, blog commenting uses the same login and password details. Simply sign in and you can contribute right away.

One final note: because of the changeover in the software, old posts on this blog are unfortunately no longer open to commenting.

If you experience any problems with the new system, drop us a line here at ouch@bbc.co.uk and we'll look into it.
