One neat thing about OpenIDs is that they are represented by plain old URIs which means you can do neat things with them. For example delegation allows me to use my blog or homepage as my OpenID URI and delegate to a real OpenID; this is achieved by adding a couple of tags to my blog template to tell the Consumer (the OpenID enabled web site) how to resolve the real Identity Provider.

In Roller, you need to edit your decorator template (or whichever template has the HEAD section) and add :

Obviously - the URLs would depend on your Identity Provider. What this means is I only ever have to remember one URI, even if I change Identity Providers.

How cool is that ?
