G+7 version 1.3 - with support for adding comments. And problems with Microsoft Live Gallery

For the last week, I have been working hard on providing support for adding comments to posts from within the post view in G+7.

This required quite a lot of effort, as I had to do a lot of reverse-engineering of Google+ Ajax calls. First - to dynamically reload the post after the comment is added and second - to actually post a comment. It took me a while to figure out everything and put all the pieces together, but eventually I was successful.


So this is what the result looks like
I hope you will like the new functionality as much as I do.You can install G+7 by following this link: http://www.kalamonsoft.com/gp7By the way - for a short while, G+7 was available on Microsoft's Windows Live Gallery. But I have just noticed that something broke, and G+7 download link no longer works. I am not sure what exactly broke the link, but I took the gadget offline, until the problem gets fixed. I submitted an update and hopefully things will get corrected by Microsoft people. However, it seems to be taking them a while to respond to update requests (last time it was around 2 weeks). Please stay tuned.
