New Feature: Comment Formatting

We're in the process of rolling out a few new features, and comment formatting is the first to go live. Lots of people have been asking for it, so here it is! Below is the syntax for formatting:

• To italicize a word or phrase, surround it with underscores. For example, _this is italic_ becomes this is italic.
• To bold a word or phrase, surround it with stars. For example, *this is bold* becomes this is bold.
• To make a hyperlink, just make sure you enter a fully-formatted URL, and it will automatically be converted. For example, http://voteoften.us becomes http://voteoften.us.

We'll also release the option to edit your comments very soon. Stay tuned for more updates and features!
