OpenID and Testing
Earlier this month I was playing with a WordPress plugin that would add OpenID support for the blog here. My intention is to make it easier to signup for commenting, while still not opening the flood gates of anonymous posting to avoid spam (I am not a big fan of CAPTCHAs). Unfortunately, the hosting environment is still on PHP4 and the plugin requires PHP5. I could probably fix the code to work with PHP4, but I have better things to do for now so the OpenID support will wait a bit.
Also, I want to share this bit posted on Jim Weirich’s blog. He said it is on his wall, and I liked it so much that it is also on mine now, too.
