Taking ownership of OpenID

Peter Nixey is a good bloke that I met at a conference way back. At the time he showed me a killer CMS product that was nice and Ajax-y, and most of all usable enough for my mother.

Now he is in the news with his Y Combinator startup Clickpass and how it is trying to make OpenID more usable.

I decided to give it a roll, and switched out my delegated open id to


<link rel="openid.server" href="https://www.clickpass.com/openid_server">

<link rel="openid.delegate" href="http://clickpass.com/public/dalmaer">

When OpenID providers first started to come out of the woodwork it felt like deja vu. Of IM providers. Of email. Of blogs.

I am in a situation these days where I want to own the end point, but have the service outsourced. almaer.com forever. I didn’t want to be switching from myopenid.com/dion to youropenid.com/dion and hoping to be able to bridge the accounts. I want to use almaer.com as my rel=”me”. As soon as delegation came about, I was able to do that and life is happy.

I am looking forward to seeing Peter, and others, crack the nut on cool openid features, and also doing enough to allow Simon to not say “we are no worse than before” and be able to say “we are way better than before”.
