OpenID
OpenID is the new generation of login. One login for several sites, this avoids sign ups in different sites.
OpenID is the start of the path to your code that will allow you to enter a site. By pre-choosing 5 categories among nine, each time you want to login in one of those sites you have to enter your OpenID and you will be asked to write your code. Your code is the letters corresponding to the pre-chosen categories.
There are a few sites already using OpenID. I was a little confused at first but now it’s very easy to use. You just have to always remember your categories to figure out your code.

I just signed up for that over the weekend. I needed one for TwitterFeed. I’m afraid I’m going to forget my categories though!
