Google have just released a new tool for Blogger to enhance its commenting system. Blogger Web Comments for Firefox is an extension that makes it easy to see what bloggers are saying about a page you’re viewing in Firefox and even make your own blog post about it, all without leaving the page you’re on.
The extension work for both viewing and adding new comments. As you visit any given page in Firefox, a comment panel featuring blog posts linking to this page will appear on the bottom right of your browser. Clicking on any of the entries will open that blog post in a new tab. You can toggle between the compact and extended comment lists, or even hide the panel completely. To bring it back, just click the icon or the icon in the lower right corner of your browser and select “View comments.” When there are lots of comments, you can click on the “Show lots more…” link, which will open a new tab in your browser with all Google Blog Search results.
To add your own comments on the page you’re on, you’ll need to have a Blogger account . To add comments, simply click the “Add a comment” link in the panel. If there are no comments on this page, simply click on the icon in the corner of your browser. If you already have a Blogger account, you’ll be prompted to sign in. If you don’t have an account, you’ll be invited to create one.
Once you’re signed in to your Blogger account, you can write your comment and we’ll automatically add it to your blog, complete with a link to the page you were looking at when you clicked “Add a comment.”
