Comments on: Too many OpenID registras considered harmful? http://www.bytebot.net/blog/archives/2007/03/09/too-many-openid-registras-considered-harmful A permanent record for what's interesting today - this is my live journal Wed, 10 Mar 2010 10:35:48 -0500 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: byte http://www.bytebot.net/blog/archives/2007/03/09/too-many-openid-registras-considered-harmful/comment-page-1#comment-124714 byte Fri, 16 Mar 2007 09:15:04 +0000 http://www.bytebot.net/blog/archives/2007/03/09/too-many-openid-registras-considered-harmful#comment-124714 Thanks for that bjorn. But I'd rather not have to run yet another service... I envisioned OpenID to be more like how DNS "just works". I didn't want to see so many "registras". I don't want my livejournal account, wordpress.com account and my open id account all being openids? Now, I've got more that one that I need. So I guess the solution is to run it on bytebot.net, and register/use that everywhere. But what about all the useless accounts that I'll also have in addition provided by wordpress.com, or lj, or something? Thanks for that bjorn. But I’d rather not have to run yet another service…

You can change openid registrar later without changing all your bytebot entries; just change the delegation.
