The Akashic Field Chronicle

With any luck, (i.e. if I managed to follow this howto properly), all the guys at Multiply should see this post as if it were from Multiply. If by any chance, you are in multiply, and you are reading this. Woohoo!!! Success. Otherwise… Just move along.

Thanks to Scion for suggesting that I cross post to multiply. This way, I get a “wider” audience (at least in the Philippines).

After reading about it in this cool blog, I’ve enabled OpenID on The AFC.

This means that anyone with an OpenID can now comment using their OpenID url. Amazingly, that means anyone from:

• Blogspot – blogname.blogspot.com
• Flickr – www.flickr.com/photos/username
• LiveJournal – username.livejournal.com
• Technorati – technorati.com/people/technorati/username
• and a host of other sites (or even your own site)

I think it’s a great way of improving the inter-operability of different blogging / social networking platforms. It will definitely mean a little more convenience for those who will comment on this blog since they won’t have to type all those info to comment. Just type your OpenID url on the text box with the OpenID logo.

Enable OpenID on your own wordpress site by installing the OpenID WP Plugin just as I did. You can also install the OpenID Delegation Plugin to make your website (i.e. http://urriza.net/blog) your very own OpenID identity. So now I can comment on my LiveJournal and Blogger friends using my own URL. Nice.
