Don't forget the new vidoop plugin! It and it's contemporaries also  
bring up the fact that adoption can be pushed by having the OP manage  
your username/password combos at non-RP sites.

The more people login via their OP, even by kludgy password managers  
via openid, the more they'll want to use their openid. And desire  
breeds demand. And demands will lead to results.
