This semi-derelict blog is now OpenID enabled

Posted in General, Software, Technology, The Web by Diggory

Not that anyone in their right mind reads this blog, but just in case:

I’ve enabled OpenID as a method for authenticating when posting a comment. I look forward to this distributed ID system becoming more common throughout the net.

If you have a blog of your own then I recommend enabling OpenID (I used the wpOpenID plug-in for WordPress – very easy to set-up.)

edit: I’ve also enabled Gravatars

    Aw, Diggory, we look out for your pearls of wisdom. And RSS means we know when to look.
    And I am amazed that we haven’t heard what you think about the upcoming PS3.

    Test Comment using OpenID (and there should be a gravatar there too.)

    I have OpnID enabled on my weblog as well. One thing I have noticed with wpopenid is that if you have moderation enabled, those users login in with OpenID do not see their comment with the “Pending Moderation” message. That could make then re-submit, thinking it hasn’t gone through.

    I am still trying to figure out why it is doing that.
