“I'm up WAY too early. Being in a different time zone every day screws you up. And I have to wait another hour until the coffee joint opens.”

Up early? I'm feeling like I'm up late. It's almost time to crawl into bed. I guess that's all just part of the job. I can't wait! - Louis Bourque

“How many of the FriendFeed gang actually use / actively think about using OpenID on a regular basis?”

I used to use OpenID but I found it too much of a pain in the ass. - Thomas Hawk

I've used it before. In concept it's a great idea, but I find the execution can create more problems than it was intended to solve. - Jason Wehmhoener

I have a couple OpenID's and I use them when I have the option, but for me, they've not reached the point where I "feel" their value. Are you using OpenID? - Todd Mundt

The OpenID concept is a wonderful idea but the execution leaves a lot to be desired for the average person. It is too quirky and although there are some trade-offs for security, I believe those differences to be making it difficult for the average joe to adopt. - Scott Jarkoff

I use it regularly for logging into Basecamp, some Drupal sites that have it enabled and a few other services. It definitely would need to be adopted by more sites/services for it to hit mainstream. - Delete Me

If FriendFeed, Twitter, Flickr, and whatever else supported it, I would be using it all the time _if_ I could move my current data to my OpenID name. - Jordan Hofker

I use it a bit on a couple sites, but it can be troublesome. - Grant Bierman

I agree with most of you - implementation seems clunkier than the theory at this point. What I've noticed is that I now have several OpenID providers, so I'm back to the same situation as before.. "now which provider did I use with xyz.com?" .. whereas before it would be "now which email / pass did I use with xyz.com?". Sadly I am reserved on whether mainstream users would ever adopt OpenID. Thanks for the thoughts! Anyone have a favourite provider? - Matt Harwood

I use OpenID whenever it's offered. - Kevin Severud

I use my OpenID on some sites, but I want to use it everywhere! - Susan Beebe

http://demand.openid.net/ - Delete Me

Scott: that's what prompted me to post :-) - Matt Harwood

I dream a day with a constant web id. Like ee340230, that's all! Forget myopenid or others....Boghh : ( - Erhan Erdogan

Erhan: different web identities are certainly annoying. And the panic when your usual/preferred username is taken? - Matt Harwood

Yes, I use it a lot, where I can - especially as my main blog is an OpenID provider - Simon Bisson via Alert Thingy

Loves @Matt: ee340230 will be given to me by Internet's government- members are; Google, Yahoo, Microsoft, etc... And it's a constant id matching with my profile. It seems possible. (exactly) - Erhan Erdogan

Like most people, I love the *idea* of OpenID, but the execution thus far is pretty sad. - Kevin Moore

I use it for at least two cites I generally use. The identities can cause problems, and some sites ask for a specific userid length which may not be compatible with your ID. I also find that that Diigo kicks me out of the site after a few minutes when I'm using OpenID - Steve Lynch via Alert Thingy

I've been moving in the direction of OpenID because of the support on Basecamp. Much easier way to handle multiple accounts. I haven't used it yet, though. - lilbyrdie

@Matt: an addition, think facebook. Nearly all of your friends have a fb account, and all of web users may have an account like ee340230.w3.org. Matching with a constant id not with a user name. It will be a standart like this. But web needs an election for a real web government - Secretary of State for Treasury should be Arrington, and like this...etc. :D - Erhan Erdogan

I would use it all the time if 1) more sites offered the option. 2) I could *easily* be my own provider like @Simon. - Geoff Longman

I used to use OpenID to log into my blog, but then I discovered the ScribeFire extension for FireFox- blog from right within FF without logging into Wordpress! Hit F8 and start typing...it's that easy! The idea behind OpenID is powerfully attractive- not to mention logical too! One day we'll all be laughing when we remember how we used a separate login ID and password for each of the various sites we used to visit! - Siddharth Deb

I use MyOpenID https://www.myopenid.com/ and it's great! I wish more sites used OpenID, makes signing up mucho easy. - Shey

I wish more systems had openID, I use it anywhere I can makes my life so much easier. Eventually someone is gonna make an app that its sole purpose is to scour the web, and remind you where and what were all the places you signed up for stuff, then report back, inform you of all your ids, and fold them into some openid setup. - Dan Rockwell via twhirl

so how much trouble is it to become your own provider? - Geoff Longman

I tried it for a while but was never comfortable with it. - Russellreno

I have an OpenID, and I use it when given the option, but not enough sites allow OpenID for it to actually be useful. - Louis Bourque

nope .. not interested in it in anyway - Steven Hodson

Well... I've got one - I use it when they offer it. - Beau Giles

I already have an OpenID because of Livejournal. I use it at any website that supports it. - Morton Fox

I love OpenID. I hope everyservice will support it in the long term. - funkyboy

I suspect OpenID will become more useful when paired with data portability functionality. I read this quote the other day "Ultimately, Data Portability is to the Centralized Me (all your stuff) as OpenID is to identity (your literal identity)" here: http://www.techcrunch.com/2008... and it seemed to explain a lot. - John Tynan

You can add me to the list. - Tanath

I use OpenID. And friends of mine do too, so they can read my LJ. - Araceli

I use OpenID whenever I can - I use MyOpenID with SSL certificates, so no passwords to remember. I prefer it to passwords, especially the way it auto fills in my photo, interests, location etc. - Richard Bradshaw

According to the little bubble, not me. Even though you said the other day I was being added to the World Wide Talk Show. ;-) Oops, can't press Enter for a newline. What I was going to say, prior to the Post button getting unexpectedly pressed, is that I cannot imagine following 20,000 (or even some fraction of that) on FF. It's gotta be tough as it is on Twitter. - Joanmarie

Guessing that comments are the way to let you know :) - Jed White

Not following me either ;) - Kenneth Verburg

Robert, I appreciate your efforts, but I'm afraid that if I follow you (and you follow me in return), I'll have to deal with a lot of noise, and a lot of hype. Once you get worked up about something, you have this need to talk about it all the time, and to impose your point of view (ex: FaceBook). That's why I unsubscribed from your blog a while back. I couldn't deal with it any more. You shot down two of my comments without even bothering to consider them. Take this for what it's worth, no hard feelings. - Raoul Pop
