off topic - how many people use OpenID ?

[Chris Drake]

Hi Scott,

No - I don't mean how many total users there are of sites that accept
multiple login systems including OpenID - I mean - how many people
are out there actually using OpenID *to* log in to sites.

You guys run myopenid.com don't you?  Did any more than 500 people log
in to places using this site last week?

Kind Regards,
Chris Drake
