This gives you an OpenID URL at <span style="font-family:courier new;">http://www.livejournal.com/users/brad/</span>. You could comment with this URL, but you'd rather have your comments link to your homepage at <span style="font-family:courier new;">http://bradfitz.com/</span>.<br /><br />By copying two lines of HTML into the <span style="font-family:courier new;"><head></span> tag of <span style="font-family:courier new;">http://bradfitz.com/</span>, you can turn it into an OpenID URL. Then, you can use <span style="font-family:courier new;">http://bradfitz.com/</span> to sign your comments, while logging in to LiveJournal when you do so.<br /><br />Delegation gives you complete control over what URL you use to represent yourself online, and complete control over what service you want to use to login with. Sam Ruby wrote a great <a href="http://intertwingly.net/blog/2007/01/03/OpenID-for-non-SuperUsers">article about OpenID</a> delegation that we recommend if you're interested.<br /><br />LiveJournal, AOL, WordPress.com, and TypeKey aren't the only OpenID providers out there. If you need an OpenID account, you can also get one from <a href="http://www.myopenid.com/">myOpenID</a>, <a href="https://pip.verisignlabs.com/">Verisign</a>, or any other service that implements OpenID.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">The "Other" URL field</span><br /><br />Right now, the only way to add a URL to your name when commenting is to sign your comment with OpenID. We apologize for removing the URL field from the comments form prematurely two weeks ago. That was a mistake on our part that came from <a href="http://bloggerindraft.blogspot.com/2007/11/new-feature-openid-commenting.html">launching OpenID support</a> on <a href="//draft.blogger.com/">Blogger in draft</a>.<br /><br />Ironically, our testing of OpenID, a feature that lets you use accounts from all over the web to comment on Blogger, made it appear that we were trying to force you into getting a Google Account. We regret this appearance, since we're strong supporters of OpenID and open web standards in general.<br /><br />If you haven't set up OpenID, you can still link to your blog — or any webpage, for that matter — by using the standard <a> tag inside the comment form. <span itemprop='author' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <meta content='https://plus.google.com/116899029375914044550' itemprop='url'/> </span> </script> <noscript> After just two short weeks of testing on <a href="//draft.blogger.com/">Blogger in draft</a>, <a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://openid.net/">OpenID</a><span style="font-weight: bold;"> commenting is now available for all Blogger blogs</span>.

Then, you can use <span style="font-family:courier new;">http://bradfitz.com/</span> to sign your comments, while logging in to LiveJournal when you do so.<br /><br />Delegation gives you complete control over what URL you use to represent yourself online, and complete control over what service you want to use to login with. Sam Ruby wrote a great <a href="http://intertwingly.net/blog/2007/01/03/OpenID-for-non-SuperUsers">article about OpenID</a> delegation that we recommend if you're interested.<br /><br />LiveJournal, AOL, WordPress.com, and TypeKey aren't the only OpenID providers out there. If you need an OpenID account, you can also get one from <a href="http://www.myopenid.com/">myOpenID</a>, <a href="https://pip.verisignlabs.com/">Verisign</a>, or any other service that implements OpenID.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">The "Other" URL field</span><br /><br />Right now, the only way to add a URL to your name when commenting is to sign your comment with OpenID. We apologize for removing the URL field from the comments form prematurely two weeks ago. That was a mistake on our part that came from <a href="http://bloggerindraft.blogspot.com/2007/11/new-feature-openid-commenting.html">launching OpenID support</a> on <a href="//draft.blogger.com/">Blogger in draft</a>.<br /><br />Ironically, our testing of OpenID, a feature that lets you use accounts from all over the web to comment on Blogger, made it appear that we were trying to force you into getting a Google Account. We regret this appearance, since we're strong supporters of OpenID and open web standards in general.<br /><br />If you haven't set up OpenID, you can still link to your blog — or any webpage, for that matter — by using the standard <a> tag inside the comment form. <span itemprop='author' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <meta content='https://plus.google.com/116899029375914044550' itemprop='url'/> </span> </noscript> </div> </div> <div class='share'> <span class='twitter-custom social-wrapper' data-href='http://twitter.com/share?text=Official Blogger Blog:OpenID Commenting&url=https://blogger.googleblog.com/2007/12/openid-commenting.html'> <img alt='Share on Twitter' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_twitter_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> <span class='fb-custom social-wrapper' data-href='https://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https://blogger.googleblog.com/2007/12/openid-commenting.html'> <img alt='Share on Facebook' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_facebook_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> </div> </div> <div class='post' data-id='6412941422181930188' itemscope='' itemtype='http://schema.org/BlogPosting'> <h2 class='title' itemprop='name'> <a href='https://blogger.googleblog.com/2007/11/blogging-from-youtube.html' itemprop='url' title='Blogging from YouTube'> Blogging from YouTube </a> </h2> <div class='post-header'> <div class='published'> <span class='publishdate' itemprop='datePublished'> November 26, 2007 </span> </div> </div> <div class='post-body'> <div class='post-content' itemprop='articleBody'> <script type='text/template'> <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="//youtube.com/"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5132852237944369474" src="//2.bp.blogspot.com/_6OZ1P5lrdvM/RzuN6lc-MUI/AAAAAAAAAAU/N3cTmc87X5Q/s320/youtubelogo.JPG" style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;"></a>As you videobloggers already know, you can <a href="http://help.blogger.com/bin/answer.py?answer=67428">upload your videos directly to Blogger</a>.

Here’s what they have to say about it:<br /><blockquote>"We're excited about the launch of video units -- a new way to enrich your blog with quality, relevant video content in an embedded, customizable player. Simply embed a snippet of code and have relevant YouTube partner content streamed to your blog. You can choose categories of video to target to your site, select content from individual YouTube partners, or have video automatically targeted to your blog's content. Companion and text overlay ads are relevant and non-intrusive.

Here’s what they have to say about it:<br /><blockquote>"We're excited about the launch of video units -- a new way to enrich your blog with quality, relevant video content in an embedded, customizable player. Simply embed a snippet of code and have relevant YouTube partner content streamed to your blog. You can choose categories of video to target to your site, select content from individual YouTube partners, or have video automatically targeted to your blog's content. Companion and text overlay ads are relevant and non-intrusive. To further blend the YouTube player into your blog, you can also customize the color scheme and layout as well as choose from three different player sizes."</blockquote>AdSense Help has some <a href="https://www.google.com/adsense/support/bin/topic.py?topic=12182">more information</a> about video units.
