Comment with OpenID

Disqus announced today that its commenting widget finally supports OpenID.

Lots of ways to login and leave a comment

You may recall they’ve been quickly adding other ways to login and leave a comment, including Facebook Connect and Twitter. I applaud their support for multiple authentication mechanisms.

An OpenID commentI’ve enabled OpenID here, and as you probably know, I’m a proponent. So, if OpenID is your bag, feel free to use it to leave comments here. It looks like Disqus isn’t asking for your avatar from your provider, so you’ll just see the big logo for now.

Over a year ago, a friend of mine, Aaron Hockley, complained that this blog (through Disqus) didn’t support comments via OpenID. He doesn’t comment on blogs that don’t support OpenID. Well, Aaron, today your lawn got a little smaller (h/t @turoczy).

If you’re wondering, that’s a #getoffmylawn reference.
