Notice how Google pre-selects the "stay signed in" checkbox so they have no guilt about tracking you. At least when I manually uncheck that after commenting somewhere (Rabett Run, mostly) I figure Google should experience a moment of shame. I mean, they know who I am whether I"m signed up or not.

IIRC I ended up having to change various settings on my (unused) WordPress account so that I could use my HotWhopper address to sign in :( <br /><br />As for Facebook websites (like ClimateProgress, where I used to be a regular) - forget it. It's all but impossible.

But, those sites tend to be the ones with more than average (but to my mind useless) security. <br /><br />I am now signed in with Google, here, and I will now press the Publish button and see what happens. <br /><br />Greg Ladenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04857616630819182647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2313427464944392482.post-80765569783253542852015-12-15T06:03:41.978+11:002015-12-15T06:03:41.978+11:00I always use name/url with my Twitter account as t...I always use name/url with my Twitter account as the url.

Users seem to get a better deal using an ID. I always use Google ID. It's convenient too. I think some reported problems are when people write a comment, and then choose an ID. Blogger sometimes seems to wipe that and start again. best to choose ID first.<br />Nick Stokeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06377413236983002873noreply@blogger.com
