come on google, it takes you 10s to have a redirector URL (<a href="http://op.google.com" target="_blank">op.google.com</a>, perhaps?) redirect to the <a href="https://www.google.com/accounts/o8/id" target="_blank">https://www.google.com/accounts/o8/id</a>. Conforming RPs are require to follow the redirect, before detecting that the XRD at that address is an law#4-capable OP, vs a user.<br>

Subject: Re: [OpenID] What is my Google OpenID URL?<br>
<div class="im"><br>
Note that using your Blogger blog URL is not equivalent to using <a href="https://www.google.com/accounts/o8/id" target="_blank">https://www.google.com/accounts/o8/id</a>. Besides the user interface of the login experience being completely different, Blogger's Provider is only an OpenID 1.1 provider, whereas Google's <a href="https://www.google.com/accounts/o8/id" target="_blank">https://www.google.com/accounts/o8/id</a> OpenID Provider is a more secure OpenID 2.0 provider.<br>

If you create a blog on Google's blogger service, then you can type the name of that blog into OpenID login boxes.<br>
<br>
If you are willing to be really geeky, type in <a href="https://www.google.com/accounts/o8/id" target="_blank">https://www.google.com/accounts/o8/id</a>. That points to the generic Google identity provider, and you will be redirected back with an opaque identifier. But we don't actually expect anyone to know to do that which is why a lot of OpenID relying parties are supporting other user interfaces with buttons for Google. For example, see <a href="http://uservoice.com/session/new" target="_blank">http://uservoice.com/session/new</a><br>
<br>
Similarly a lot of blogs allow you to comment and identify you with an OpenID URL, and while you can try one of the tricks above, many of the blog commenting interfaces also include buttons (or the NASCAR style UI as the community likes to call it) to help users navigate their way through.<br>
