Demand OpenID! from Your Favorite Website

Demand OpenID

Many websites let users log in with an OpenID already, and numbers are still growing. Those sites have understood users’ demands for convenient and secure logins. If you use your OpenID regularly, you have noticed that OpenID provides more features than simple single sign-on on various websites across the web. You are able to circumvent boring and repetitive registration processes because you don’t have to provide required profile information anymore. You’re OpenID provider does it for you, if you have allowed it to do so, of course.

However there are still good chances that your favorite website isn’t supporting OpenID yet. Admittedly I know some people who don’t want to sign up for an OpenID because their daily used web service isn’t supporting it. Well, then make those sites aware of your wishes now. JanRain has launched a small project called Demand OpenID! to make your opinion heard. Just sign in with your OpenID, drag a bookmarklet to your browser and whenever you come across a website that you want to be OpenID enabled, just click it.

Demand OpenID! could be improved a little bit (see Marshall Kirkpatrick’s post on it) but it’s a nice little application to make your voice heard.

    Well, actually I don’t think much is happening. Someone asked a similar question on Get Satisfaction a few days ago. Though there is no reply yet.

    Yes, OpenID is much comfortable to me.

    Since this was posted back in May, has anyone had any results, positive or negative, from trying this?

  3. Too many OpenID providers? I don’t think so. « Free Thoughts linked to this post on September 29, 2008

    [...] yeah, while you’re telling your favourite website that they should start accepting OpenIDs, do me a favour and ask them to become a provider, [...]
