It’s so easy to connect now

So, JayMonster got on to me about not adding OpenID to this site after me bitching about other sites not allowing me to comment with the usual “Name+Email+URL” combination.

Being the git I am, I couldn’t let that rest and even though I’ve had problems with OpenID implementations on this site before, it’s now up and running as a way to comment here without logging in.

Not only that, but while I was at it, I’ve added a whole bunch of other service providers from Google to Technorati, WordPress.com to Yahoo and beyond for you to easily identify yourself with.

But lets not stop there, for those Googelites among you (and who isn’t these days) you may see a new bar across the bottom of the site. That’s the Google Friend Connect bar, which will allow you get social with the users of this and thousands of other sites just by clicking the “Join” button and signing into your Google account.

See, I’ve been a busy boy around here today! Are you connected yet?

    Cool, now can you tell me how the heck you did it? I can’t seem to get it working on my site. :oops:
