If your thinking about supporting Open ID, so your users can use their MySpace, Google, Facebook, or another service identity provider you should consider https://rpxnow.com/. Integration is simple, it supports all the major service providers and adds some nice analytics on top. Save yourself some time and effort, integrate once and support them all.

Myspace launches Myspace ID and gets it very right

I have already posted what I don’t like about Facebook Connect. Yes its a great in some ways but very wrong in others. Myspace has recently launched their Myspace ID and they clearly understand the needs of the businesses that would integrate it. They are using an “open stack” which consists of OpenID, OAuth, and OpenSocial. They also give businesses greater access to the users information, email, etc. They also seem to understand that the user, when they sign up for the third party site, is a customer of that site, regardless of which method of credentialing they use. The third party site gets to have a direct conversation with the user. These are big distinctions and I believe they will result in greater adoption by much larger entities then the uptake Facebook Connect has seen.
