I can’t, so I wrote a blogpost about it: developmentals.wordpress.com/2009/08/18/multiple-account-personality/
Today I wanted to comment on a Blogger weblog, but I remenbered again why I don’t like to do that. I never get it done!
There are all kinds of accounts that you can use, but somehow I get none of them do what I want, that is just give my own name.
So I was wondering, do others have the same problems. Those who use Wordpress to comment on Blogger and those who use Blogger to comment on Wordpress. And that apart from other platforms that I am even less familiar with.

It seems to work for Blogger and Wordpress .org, but not for Wordpress .com. And until now I did not find many who have it on Blogger, so for the exchange between Blogger and Wordpress it is still not ideal it seems.
But I am very glad I found it, as there are others who seem to use it, where I can more easy comment. And it also gives an integration of Twitteraccounts.
I was just wondering why Gravatar can not be used everywhere. -
You don't need a comment system on wordpress. com as the software is already equipped with one which works extremely well. Moreover, you cannot install one on wordpress. com blogs as they are all on the same wpMU multiuser blogging platform. I wish I had known that was what you were trying to do from the outset because I could have saved you time and trouble.

I was just wondering why Gravatar can not be used everywhere.
Here's the link to Gravatar implementor's guide

And here's the main link en.gravatar.com/
I believe the developers there will be able to give you an answer to your question.
I hope this helps. -
Timethief, thank you very much for your reply. No, it was not meant to install on my Wordpress. com blog because, as you say, it already works perfect.
But the problem for me was to comment on Blogger. That is why I was wondering if there was no account somewhere that would work 'universal' so to speak, one time an account where you can comment everywhere as long as you are logged in. I thought that was the case with Gravatar, but it does not work on Blogger.
And somehow I thought now, that was the case with Intense debate, but it also has its limitations.
