Comment (by johnjamesjacoby):

 “Save my name, email, and site URL in my browser for next time I post a
 comment.”

 Should probably be:

 “Save my name, email, and website this browser for the next time I post a
 comment.”

 Even better would be:

 “Use a cookie to remember my information in this browser for the future.”

 ——

 The original text uses “site URL” instead of “website”, which is
 considered jargon. It also is missing a “the” which is necessary to not
 sound like it was written by a non-native English speaker.

 My alternative text suggestion is shorter, more accurate, and plugin
 friendly. For example, bbPress uses this same cookie when anonymous
 posting is turned on, as do other plugins that enable “guest” users to do
 things. I.E. this is not only for comments.
