but maybe there are some regular bloggers that can help me out with this one?? I wrote awhile back why I thought WordPress was better than Blogger. I have not changed my position.
I follow several blogs, and I realize that Blogger is popular. I don’t have a problem with this. Sometimes I like to comment on other people’s posts. Whenever I want to comment on someone’s post who has a blogger account, you have to enter a word-verification to make sure there is no spam. It’s annoying, but again, not really a problem.
What I DO have a problem with is how to connect my comment with my WordPress account instead of my Blogger account! (Yes, I have one. I do like Google for other things.) I have the option of choosing my comment identity as my Google account, which is definitely the easiest. But when I try to connect it to an “Open ID” (WordPress), I always seem to have issues. I just spent 10 minutes trying to post one comment (with my WordPress identity) on someone’s Blogger blog, and it kept saying that I wrote in the wrong word verification. I did NOT have the wrong word verification, blogger just seems to hate people with open id’s. UGH. I finally just gave up since it hated me.
Has anyone else experienced this issue and can tell me what I’m doing wrong?

Good thoughts! Although I haven’t really had too many issues with Blogger in that respect, I find it rather clunky and annoying to go through the word verification nonsense. WordPress makes the process very smooth, and it’s easy to get quick notification of responses, follow-ups, etc. Have a good day!
