Pibb Sign in page. Nice demonstration of an easier OpenID sign in page—lets you sign in with an AIM screenname or LiveJournal username instead (which uses OpenID under the hood).

  1. The general concept is a great idea, but this particular interface seems overwhelming -- a screen full of sign-in prompts. Maybe a tabbed interface would work better to make it truly easier? Loving where it's headed, though.

  2. My issue with this approach is provider proliferation.

    Support Yahoo starts providing, and then Google. Are you going to have 5 prompts?

    I think education is the right approach.

    Although maybe major providers will start paying consumers to short-cut their site with a prominent "Foo username" prompt. ;-)
