[OpenID] Google and FB users can login to Yahoo! using OpenID and FBconnect - from tomorrow

[sknvn-openid at yahoo.com]

Thanks Brian. 
We are live now. You all can give it a try. 
If you already have a Yahoo! ID, I recommend linking it with your Google or FB 
ID otherwise you'll end up with two separate accounts. I know many people had 
asked for this where you can use Google ID or FB to sign into your existing 
account. If some of you want to try various flows I suggest using test accounts. 
:)

Do let us know any feedback.

Thanks

Naveen

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:
http://blog.flickr.net/en/2010/10/28/sign-up-for-flickr-with-your-google-account/

http://developer.yahoo.com/blogs/ydn/posts/2010/10/yahoo-accepts-openid-authentication-with-google/

http://googlecode.blogspot.com/2010/10/simpler-access-to-flickr-for-google.html
 
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
