I think I’ve discovered a part of the problem people have been having with multiple user names etc. When I made a comment on Colin’s most recent post, I wasn’t actually signed in to wordpress, but the text fields were all auto-filled in, so I thought that was okay. Apparently it makes it act all funny. SO: when you’re about to make a comment, make sure you’re signed in (you’ll know you’re signed in if you have the charcoal-gray bar at the top of the screen and your username and picture on the right side of that bar). OR what you can do is click on the wordpress logo in the comment box, and it will “sign you in with wordpress” or something like that.
Also, I bet we could talk about this problem in interesting sign/signifier/signified/lifeworld kind of ways. Whoever does will get 2 free hugs. I was going to offer cookies, but I don’t have any on me, and I’m too lazy to get you some or make you some.

When seeing the title I was thinking Oh I have the same problem (which turned out to be different).
I currently have 3 Google accounts, coz I don’t want to mix the sign up ads with my personal correspondance or academic new letters. However, since I like Gmail much better than other email services. I logged in and out frequently. Does anyone know a better solution?

I’ve categorized this post as “Meta.” Future failures to categorize posts could result in loss of life and limb.

I totally did categorize this post. I remember using the meta tag even and thinking “well I guess that’s right…”
So if it wasn’t categorized I blame the blog.
