<a href="http://URL">link text</a>
URL? email? spam?
If you enter a URL for yourself, then your comment will have your name listed as a link to a web site. If you enter only an email address, then your name will be linked to your email address. This page uses Movable Type's "Spam Protect" feature which means that your email address is encoded in a way to keep spammers from picking it up while trolling the web. People can still email you individually from your comment, myself included!
