I've been wondering around on the web to look for an service that provides script for commenting on new blogger blogs.Reason: to comment, you have to click on an external link,first sign in {if you aren't} then retype then fill in CAPTCHA {if enabled}.This is a very time consuming and irritating process.On the other hand, Wordpress blogs have on site comment forms which invites more and more readers to comment, easily.
I came across a few sites, but their scripts weren't successful.Then finally I came across Haloscan.com that provides
•Onsite comment forms for new blogger
•Installation wizard for different blogging platforms {including both versions of blogger} so no play of code here
•Integrated support for smileys{blogger doesn't support them} and an image uploading option [even wordpress doesn't provide free image hosting for comments
•Track back Included
•Recent Comments widget
•Getting email address of the commenter!
I have just signed up but not installed it as my previous comments wouldn't be visible anymore{if I remove commenting link}.Haloscan.com is still in beta testing phase and their are many fluctuations in its Data Centers and its users are a bit annoyed with it
What I recommend is that you go with Haloscan.com if your blog is new or doesn't have much comments.
