Blogger, I appreciate your changes but that's not what I asked for

What a coincidence: I was talking about it yesterday and a few hours later Google posted "Engage with your readers through threaded commenting" on their Blogger blog.

Thanks Google for moving forward, but I think you are using the wrong road.

Where is Google+ in all this? Seems confusing to me that you are throwing G+ everywhere in your products, and going forward with a "custom-made" commenting system for Blogger. Something doesn't add up here.

I hope you have strong reasons for doing this. It took you 5+ years to revamp comments on Blogger, so I basically lost all my hopes in seeing G+ taking over here.

But again, thank you for doing something.
