This blog is OpenID enabled!

OpenID logo

One thing led to another. After reading my previous entry on “mod_python OpenID Access Control”, Nate Olson contacted me to ask if I tried Alan Castonguay’s Wordpress OpenID plug-in. To which I replied, “no, but I will try it out!”

After upgrading my wordpress to the latest and greatest, and then installing the plug-in, this blog is now OpenID enabled!

You’d need to first get yourself an OpenID URL (better yet, an i-name). There are many OpenID providers out there. Once you have that, you can then comment on this blog (and many other sites) by logging in with your OpenID. If you stay logged in at your OpenID provider, there is no need to type in your password in pesty registration forms as you move across various OpenID enabled sites (Zooomr is one such early adopter.)
