I don't recall whether I mentioned it in one of the posts of the debate but the forms typically used in blog posts are actually quite limited, the most common being the crawl, the column, the diatribe, and the polemic.

A couple of years ago I tried the colloquium and it was pretty effective.

Debates are difficult but I think the results have been worthwhile.

Dave and Bernard demonstrated here, though, that it’s quite possible to rise above the fray and engage in serious, reasoned discussion.

Yeah, but that shite gets old!
