Not harder, but far, far less intuitive than shoving in a CD and doing what it asks you to do.. And what if you happen to be using Fedora, then it's not apt-get, it's yum! WHat if the program isn't in the default-enabled repos, then you have to edit the … (see comment)

First sane comment I've seen on this page.. That is by far the best feature of OpenID. If you are paranoid, you can use (or create!) an OpenID end-point that requires one of those random-number-thingys, then to confirm via SMS, the SHA-1 sum of your reti … (see comment)

What evidence do you propose to support your claim that this "open Id thing is just B.S"? If you actually care, and aren't just trolling, see http://openid.net/what/ and http://openid.net/foundation/ And the first part of the name ("open") means you can … (see comment)

There are a huge number of OpenID end-point providers. The problem currently is there is no-where to login using them... While myspace or whomever may have announced that they are becoming openID providers, you can't actually use them to login.. http:// … (see comment)

Gah, no it's not. The username/password in a box schema is an equally bad (or even worse) idea - most people use the same password for their login as their email account, and that email could have far far more than just a list of sites they use.. OpenID … (see comment)
