December 12th, 2007I just read on BoingBoing that Terry Pratchett has been diagnosed with early onset Alzheimers disease. It’s up on The Guardian too.
Here’s a link to Terry’s statement.
Blogger to Bloggers PFO
December 10th, 2007Blogger also known as Blogspot and now owned by Google, has been the Blog platform of choice for millions of bloggers. It’s quick and simple to set up and appears to function with a minimum of fuss. Recent changes to the cumbersome commenting system in Blogger made it more difficult for non-Blogger users to leave comments and include their non-blogger website address. For instance I could no longer leave www.thegurrier.com as my website link, only http://thegurrier.com would create a link.
Now Blogger have seen fit to remove this ability completely. When commenting on the Blogger platform one can only enter a ‘nickname’. No weblink is allowed. This is a royal pain in the arse and will lead to less comments being made and less links between bloggers being created and shared.
Blogger aren’t stupid, Google aren’t stupid, what benefit does turning Blogger into a walled garden like Facebook or Bebo have? On the flipside Blogger have announced support for Openid, but this is not a feature turned on by default and is still in beta.
What can you do? Blogger users and Non-Blogger users alike can head to this page and ask them to turn the feature back on.
