http://openid.sun.com/bblfish
I was able to successfully log onto:
(Using Safari but not Firefox 2.004 !?)
And I did not have to invent a new username and password, nor fill out any form, other than to fill out my id. I did not have to wait for an email confirmation, nor send an email response or go to a web verification site. I did not have to add one more password to my keychain.
A really small step, but oh what a useful one!
I can add this info to my foaf file with the simple relation :
<http://bblfish.net/people/henry/card#me> <http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/openid> <http://openid.sun.com/bblfish> .This will come in very useful, one way or another. See the article "foaf and openid", for an example.

Note on comments:
- I know the forms below are a little small. We have asked for years for this to be changed, but I don't think it's going to happen soon. In Apple's Safari you can resize the entry box with you mouse. For people using other browsers click on this javascript link, that should allow you to resize your form.
- Comments are moderated, so they will take a little time to appear. Currently moderation means I have to read them personally. Hopefully with OpenId deployment, this will become more automated.
- HTML markup no longer works here, due to some decision made somewhere. Sorry about that.
- If you are having trouble posting, it may be that you need javascript to be enabled. I don't think javascript should be needed for submitting a form, but that's the way it is here.
