Blogger comments

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

I was just over reading Mike Sanders’ blog, and the comments therein when I realized that both of the commenters, when I hovered over their names, instead of being the URL for their site, it was a link to their Blogger profile. Then, when I clicked the “leave a comment” link the page that was brought up told me that “This blog does not allow anonymous comments” but that I would be posting as ‘Mike’, which I assume means that my blogger profile would allow me to go ahead and comment. So now we’re going to have a bunch of blogger-powered blogs that require you to have a blogger profile to leave comments on, and we are on the verge of needing a TypeKey profile to leave comments on a number of Movable Type blogs. Where does it end? At what point does it just become too damn hard to make sure you’re registered or profiled and you just stop commenting, ever?

By the way, commenting here requires nothing. You can leave all the anonymous comments you want!

    A stunning display of incompetence, that is. I get on the Time Warner support people quite a bit, because as a RoadRunner subscriber we’ve had our share of difficulties with them. Just to show that it’s not us, the person I hired as part of Angela’s Xmas gift to do a new graphic look for…

    Asa, from mozilla.org sent me an email that both thanked me for linking to and talking about Firefox, and asked me to link to them using a button. I haven’t decided on whether I want to start the trend of using a lot of buttons to link to things, I already have enough issues with…

    I’ve been told by Readyhosting’s Tech Support people that the current problems with the site will probably continue through the weekend. They are having a router issue, and the spare part they need to fix their router issue won’t be in until then. So this weekend you can expect random script errors and general unresponsiveness…

  • Freeware

    Thanks to a pointer fro the Office Weblog, I found this interesting OS News article about using just freeware to get things done on a Windows PC. Most of that stuff is familiar to me, but some isn’t. That’ll give me some new things to think about. 🙂 Speaking of which, I need to update…

  • Terminations

    I was listening to the latest In The Trenches earlier today, and found myself nodding my head in agreement when Kevin was talking about knowing someone’s being let go and having to disable accounts as it’s happening. It is easily one of the worst parts of the job. It’s a sickening feeling knowing someone’s going…

    But then again, the downside to the three day weekend is that it takes a day just to get back in the groove in the office! I feel like I have no idea what I’m doing or what I’m supposed to be doing! 🙂 Follow these topics: Uncategorized
