OpenID is a decentralized authentication mechanism that allows you to have one login that you can use on a growing number of websites.

If you have an account with some of the larger web service providers, you might already have an OpenID. Directory of OpenID providers

It's also possible to make a page in the wiki usable as an OpenID url, by delegating it to an openid server. Here's an example of how to do that:

[[!meta  openid="http://yourid.myopenid.com/"
       server="http://www.myopenid.com/server"]]
