Independent study on OpenID awareness using Mechanical Turk

[Chris Messina]

Wanted to share the results of a study that Brynn Evans and I completed at
the end of October:

http://tr.im/mturk_openid

It cost me about $6 to collect responses from 301 people on Mechanical Turk.
I felt that it was important to look into a wider sample size than Yahoo's
study which was composed of 9 female Yahoo members in their thirties. In
particular, many people drew conclusions from that small sample size about
OpenID's awareness that I felt were unfounded and decided to seek out an
independent analysis of a larger data set.

The original source data is available here:

Thoughts welcomed,

Chris
