I use jekyll for my blog and looked for ways to integrate comments. I ended up with a simple solution: Provide a per-post unique email address where people can send comments to. The idea was then to manually process the comments and only put the most useful ones on the website.

I wanted to think that the hurdle is very low. It's a bit higher than just entering text in a text box and clicking a button. But sending an email isn't that hard either.

I received maybe half a dozen emails since I introduced my form of static comments. Most in the form of 'Does this work?'. For obvious reasons I didn't publish them. I redesigned my blog a few weeks ago and didn't add the comment feature back in.

I find that a very interesting solution, but I suspect I'd not use it in practice (to submit comments).

Moving away from the browser to my mail-client to compose things would distract me and cause me to be a little confused.
