AOL

Huzzah! AOL is supporting OpenID, which is huge. [via] [via]

I don’t know how many users they have but it was once 26+ million. I wonder how many websites this year will now integrate OpenID support to tap this new resource? Let the flood of users begin.
A Key point for AOL users;
“Every AOL/AIM user now has at least one OpenID URI, http://openid.aol.com/< sn >.”
Enter in your OpenId URI in the appropriate field, click, and then verify your OpenID request on the OpenID providers website.

It’s now just that simple to leave comments/create accounts/and more on any OpenID enabled website, like my blog, LiveJournal, and People Aggregator.

OpenID rocks.

[update]“There are now 63 million AOL/AIM OpenIDs.” and more here.
