Google+ comments was recently introduced by Blogger, it is fast becoming the comment system for blogger blogs as more and more blogs are beginning to integrate it into their blogs. WordPress users are not left out as a Google+ comments plugin has been developed for WordPress blogs. If you are on blogger platform and you are still yet to integrate the Google+ comments to your blog, quickly read Babanature’s post on “How to enable Google Plus Comment Box on Blogger Blog”.
For WordPress users, the Google+ Comments for WordPress lets you use the Google+ comments system on your WordPress site just as those in Blogger blogs.
