[OpenID] older openid, versus google/yahoo etc. A Users actual experiencel

[Allen Tom]

As a frequent website commenter myself, I appreciate the UX when I post on
sites that embed either Disqus or the FB Comment Box. Not having to
login/register or even click any buttons before writing the comment is a
great user experience, and really lowers the barrier to posting comments on
a website)

(Publishers embed Disqus and the FB Comment Box using iframes, which enables
the commenting system to automatically recognize users and share an
authentication session across sites - even new first time vistors to a site
are able to comment without logging in, assuming that they've already logged
into the commenting system)

I am somewhat surprised that (most) users no longer freak out when they're
automatically recognized on a site that they haven't been to before. This
definitely was a point of concern when I worked on this stuff in the past.
