Phase 1 of our OpenID integration is about to launch…
All public records on FindMeOn.com ( the /user/ and /findmeon/ directories ) are now ususable as OpenID ‘Urls’. They also all point to the http://openid.findmeon.com server.
The OpenID server is used to handle all logins and simple-registration. Right now, it requires a seperate login — but it does use the same email/password as your FindMeOn.com login, as well as account information from your FindMeOn.com profile.
The service also uses abstracted FindMeOn.com identitifiers — so each account you list with FindMeOn.com has its own identity URL. Everything uses the same login/password and profile description — but this approach keeps your identitiy urls shielded from one another.
Within the next week Phase2 will launch - which is mostly our own extensions to the OpenID protocol.
FindMeOn.com plans on offering mulitiple login/identity services for its users. OpenID is just the first implementation.
