Greasemonkey: Use OpenID by Default for Blogger Comments

May 20, 2008

I read several blogs that use Blogger as their software platform, and in what shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone, I leave comments using OpenID. I got tired of having to always change the comment identity selection away from my Google ID, so I wrote a greasemonkey script that does it automatically by selecting the identity option to use OpenID instead of the default.

You can download the script from userscripts.org. Feedback is welcome either on this post or as a comment on userscripts.

Excellent, downloaded and in my greasemonkey arsenal. That explains your aversion to one-more-login on my blog.

I now demand you go back to the blog, log in with openid, and remember what you typed before.
