This is yet another post with a not so happy attitude, but for the most part, I feel fine - I just dislike Blogger*…a lot.
I really don’t understand why some bloggers who use Blogger require their commenters to sign up for a Blogger account to leave their thoughts.
Sure, comment spam is an epidemic that needs to be stopped, but making it a lot more difficult for users to communicate and share their thoughts with you is not necessarily the way to go about it.
Frankly, I don’t use Blogger. Why, then, would I need an account with them?
It’s like people who require their commenters to sign up with TypeKey* or register with the blog - here’s a hint - I already have more passwords than I care to remember, I don’t need yet another one.
Okay, done ranting. At least for now.
* I’m sure I signed up for an account with them a long…very very long…time ago, but it’s been so long that I neither remember my login ID or password, much less the e-mail address used for the sign up process. And no offense, no comment is worth that kind of stress. I’d rather just blog my response and tag it.
