Hi All,

Some of you may have already seen this in the news today but in case you
missed.

http://developer.yahoo.com/blogs/ydn/posts/2011/01/third-party-auth/

You will be able to login to your existing Yahoo! account using OpenID with
Google or using FB account. Of course if you don't have an account, you can
login to Yahoo! with G or FB ID ( without selecting a password or a Yahoo
ID). If at a later time you do want to get Yahoo! mail, you will be able to
select Yahoo mail ID and a password.

I'll send out a note when this is live tomorrow. 

Thanks

Naveen Agarwal

Subject: [OpenID] Flickr users can now login with a Google account via
OpenID

Hi All,

 

Flickr now lets users login using a Google Account using the OpenID
protocol.

 

More info here:

This is a big win for OpenID and for open standards, and hopefully we'll see
more large sites accept 3rd party identities using open standards in the
future.

 

Allen
