OpenID enabled...

I've been reading some blogs and watching some introductory videos about OpenID today and I kinda like what I heard/saw. I think that by OpenID-enabling a "social" web site will help its adoption as there are many web 2.0 startups embracing OpenID and many more are coming aboard including giants like AOL and Microsoft.For the users of those sites, OpenID makes it easier to manage their identity and enables to participate in many, many, many "social networks" (OpenID-enabled) without a hassle. Plus a sea of endless possibilities to inter operate between OpenID networks, etc.

I'm seriously thinking of building support for OpenID into our upcoming site. I will be reading the OpenID spec in the upcoming weeks to get myself familiar with the technology. What would be cool is Grails support (plugin) for OpenID!

@bart: Jyte has an "embedded" piece of html code for each claim that you could copy/paste, kinda like youtube does.
