OpenID

I now have OpenID support enabled for comment posting so if you use OpenID you can login with it.

Here's what it looks like.







What is OpenID?
In short think of it like a .net passport (live id) used on micro$ofts web sites that allow you to log in if your on technet or hotmail and stay logged in across all their sites just with this you could be on blogger and need to log in on OpenID Directory just copy paste your blogspot url and there you go you get asked if you want to id yourself with the web page and thats it and here is the official definition from OpenID's Web Site

OpenID eliminates the need for multiple usernames across different websites, simplifying your online experience.

You get to choose the OpenID Provider that best meets your needs and most importantly that you trust. At the same time, your OpenID can stay with you, no matter which Provider you move to. And best of all, the OpenID technology is not proprietary and is completely free.

For businesses, this means a lower cost of password and account management, while drawing new web traffic. OpenID lowers user frustration by letting users have control of their login.

For geeks, OpenID is an open, decentralized, free framework for user-centric digital identity. OpenID takes advantage of already existing internet technology (URI, HTTP, SSL, Diffie-Hellman) and realizes that people are already creating identities for themselves whether it be at their blog, photostream, profile page, etc. With OpenID you can easily transform one of these existing URIs into an account which can be used at sites which support OpenID logins.

OpenID is still in the adoption phase and is becoming more and more popular, as large organizations like AOL, Microsoft, Sun, Novell, etc. begin to accept and provide OpenIDs. Today it is estimated that there are over 160-million OpenID enabled URIs with nearly ten-thousand sites supporting OpenID logins.

so if don't use OpenID you can go to OpenID Directory and get one from them or you can create an account on blogger and use that also its all your choice.

And that ends this update.
