Hi! Just a short notice:
Some people have problems not being able to post comments on blogger. Happened to me actually.
The reason for this is that blogger uses third-party cookies for the commenting. I have no clue why they would do that (probably trying to give a cookie from blogger.com or google.com while you are actually at blogspot.com).
Anyway, the solution is accepting third-party cookies. You can do that through your browser configuration.
What are third-party cookies?
Websites use third-party cookies for tracking people, to identify the users when they visit (revisit, actually) their site. This could ALSO be done without cookies, through the IP-Address (except for some Providers, where the IP-Address changes repeatedly, or someone using Thor), but the IP-Address changes every time you connect to the Internet (normally. that is), so they can only be used for short-term tracking. The really interesting data comes from long-term tracking, as web sites can get a feeling for how many regular visitors they really have. So, third-party cookies don't harm you physically, but to a certain extent, violate your privacy.
