From the page: "I've had some interesting conversations with people lately regarding OpenID. What is OpenID? It's 1 login/password for every site that supports it. As you may have noticed we've implemented it here in the comments and soon you will have to have an OpenID in order to leave a comment. Now Microsoft tried to do this with passport years ago and many websites including eBay tried it out. For whatever reason (trust issues with Microsoft? timing?) it didn't work out. Typekey is a similar system and they've done a pretty good job but... there still isn't widespread adoption. Part of the problem with Passport and Typekey is that it is a centralized system. OpenID, for better or for worse, is a de-centralized authentication system."
