Comments on: OpenID Begins To Consider Usability; Let’s Stop Marketing The OpenID Name http://www.centernetworks.com/openid-launches-id-selector Web 2 and Social Media News and Reviews Sat, 21 Nov 2009 01:50:56 -0600 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.6 hourly 1 By: Scott Kveton http://www.centernetworks.com/openid-launches-id-selector/comment-page-#comment-18783 Scott Kveton Wed, 30 Nov -0001 00:00:00 +0000 #comment-18783 Hi Allen ... the ID Selector is absolutely an important step in usability for OpenID. When my mom got email she got email; not SMTP. I fully believe that the same will be true with OpenID. With respect to your comment about a plugin to store/manage all of your passwords the company I work for (Vidoop) has just such a thing: https://myvidoop.com/plugin_firefox_install This is a plugin for both Firefox and IE that manages not only your OpenID identity but also that of sites that have yet to adopt OpenID. This is a great way to bridge the gap between the reality of today and the promise of tomorrow. Hi Allen … the ID Selector is absolutely an important step in usability for OpenID.
