Google+ Comments for your blog
Posted: Tue May 14, 2013 11:58 pm
Hi @everybody,
This is for friends of the social web. In case you have missed it:
"Google+ Comments are available for your blog"
Well, it's actually a hack. Google made it available on Blogger.com but there is no official tech docu, yet.
It looks something like that.
Implementation is straightforward. If you are on Wordpress (oopps!) install one of the plugins
If you are on S9Y write it into your smarty template.
e.g.: entries.tpl
More details via my G+ post. +Keith's article was the main source of info for me.

Also helpful the Google+ API: https://developers.google.com/+/api/
Currently I use the Facebook social plugin next to the original S9Y comments. For sure I will dump Facebook and replace it with Google+ comments. It already works fine in my test s9y blog.
