Comments on: OpenID may very well belong in the browser http://cdevroe.com/notes/openid-browser/ by Colin Devroe Thu, 12 Apr 2012 16:52:38 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: Colin Devroe http://cdevroe.com/notes/openid-browser/#comment-239571 Colin Devroe Wed, 03 Dec 2008 13:13:10 +0000 http://cdevroe.com/?p=1439#comment-239571 Kyle: The entire initiative is a challenge, to be sure. Like I said "For any of us that browse, for the most part, from the same computer every single day" this would be a great advantage. The shared computer experience is always a challenge for any technology. One of the things that I've seen recently is that you can do two things to ward off the potential for downtime. Setup multiple OpenID providers, and even set yourself up as one. I'd need to do some digging to find out how to actually do that though. Kyle: The entire initiative is a challenge, to be sure.

Have a alternate username/password that you could use instead? Personally I don't like OpenID for similar reasons--what about if my OpenID provider goes down? I don't get to use my sites because I can't login? Hm, definitely intriguing, but what about when you use a different computer? Have a alternate username/password that you could use instead?

Personally I don’t like OpenID for similar reasons–what about if my OpenID provider goes down? I don’t get to use my sites because I can’t login?
