Получать OpenID
18-ое февраля 2008 · Дэвид Брэдли
Ваш перечень usernames и пароли для все тех стержень 2.0 распологает вас получать пользы более длиной и более длиной? Мое! Не день идет мимо без мое создать новый login. Оно не было бы больш если мы смогли все как раз создать одиночный login для всего? Бит как пасспорт Microsoft был для вносить в журнал в места всего Microsoft но без бита Microsoft. В шагах OpenID.
С OpenID вы можете logon к всем вашим любимейшим websites использующ одиночную тождественность. Больше чем то, оно препятствует вам доказать вас будет такой же персоной через все те по-разному места. Ваше OpenID носит с им ваши личные credentials, ваш профиль, его будет online портативным общим назначением karma.
Так, как оно работает и как вы получаете OpenID?
Как только вы получаете обозначение OpenID (будет основно специальным URL), котор вы можете подписать внутри к любому месту принимает OpenID без потребности создать новую определяет каждое индивидуальное распологает. Если вы находитесь на LiveJournal, то TypeKey, WikiTravel, GreatestJournal или Vox вы уже имеете обозначение OpenID.
Если вы находитесь на одном из этих мест, то (т.е. , котор хозяйничают blog или место) ваше OpenID врезаны в вашем месте и вам не нужно сделать что-нибыдь. Например, если вы имеете a WordPress.com blog, ваше OpenID будет просто URL вашего blog http://yourname.wordpress.com/. Если вы видите коробку login как это на месте, то вы печатаете на машинке или затир в вашем URL Wordpress (вашем OpenID) и следуете за инструкциями проверки.
Если вашим адресом blog будет http://matt.wordpress.com/, то вы напечатали бы то на машинке в форму signin. Make sure вы внесено в журнал в ваше blog wordpress.com сперва однако.
Следующая коробка, котор вы видите спросит вам доверяете ли вы месту вы посещаете с вашим OpenID. Make sure вы делает, но если это будет большим названным местом, то вы будете довольно безопасны. Вы можете решить хотите ли вы сделать доверие постоянно или пойти через процесс проверки each time вы посещение.
Так, где могу я использовать мое OpenID? Наилучшим образом, вы можете login к месту Ma.gnolia.com социальному bookmarking с OpenID, Drupal (отличало в смокве Sig Раздел UberGeek недавн), Mixx, Simpy, twitterfeed (препятствует вам подать ваше питание RSS к вашему учету twitter), Plaxo online адресная книг, вы можете востребовать ваше blog дальше Technorati с OpenID. Для вполне перечня места доступные с посещением OpenID директория на myopenid.com.
О hackers? Well, unlike many past single sign-on systems, OpenID doesn’t rely on a central server with all its users information. Instead, the system is distributed and there are many distinct providers. You may have heard that Microsoft, Google, IBM, and Yahoo recently signed up to the OpenID system. As a potential OpenID user, you usually have to make a decision as to which provider you will trust with your information. Which is the most reputable and which is most likely to keep your data safest?
However, there is another way. If you’re not satisfied with the public providers, you can be your own OpenID provider because any URL can be your OpenID. All you have to do is add a few special lines to the
section of one of your blog or website pages to define what the server for that ID is. Check out this post from the OpenID Foundation, for more information on being your own OpenID delegate or follow the OpenID recipe here here.

David,
I use OpenId for several of my online accounts. I wish more sites used it! I’m curious - what option did you choose for your OpenID, and why?
David Bradley // Feb 18, 2008 at 2:30 pm
Deborah, so far I’ve only used OpenID for twitterfeed (with that I used a Yahoo account because that was months ago and was the default choice). However, I do have a Wordpress.com account and will most likely use that once the need arises, just because it seems so simple.

I have a WordPress.com account, but didn’t realize it could be used for my OpenId. I created my OpenId with myopenid last year.
David Bradley // Feb 18, 2008 at 3:56 pm
For sure. I think it’s been part of Wordpress-hosted blogs for a long while now.
What systems are other users using and why?

Sounds pretty cool, it sounds like a token type of system??? I know it isn’t as slick as this but I use Password Agent…..it is manual but with all the different users and passwords I have, it works for me…
David Bradley // Feb 18, 2008 at 6:58 pm
Chas, it’s been around for quite some time, but is only now really attracting the attention of the big players. It is a token type system, yes, but what it could mean ultimately is uniform login and ID across all the sites you use.

I work at Vidoop and we have an OpenID provider (http://myvidoop.com) and a really cool ‘password agent’ plugin to store the login and passwords from sites that don’t support OpenID. The plugin is easy to use and ties in to your OpenID account. e.g. Login to your myVidoop account, then browse on with no need to worry about logging in anywhere else. Good bye to worries about key loggers and phishing attacks…

Thanks for the comment Kevin. If any readers have used Vidoop, perhaps they could tell us about their experiences with it. I wonder how it compares to a system like Passpack

@Kevin — Hi. Yup, PassPack will become an OpenID consumer (not provider). We’ll also work towards better handling storage of OpenID’s alongside passwords.
There are some changes in the works:

@David — The difference (Kevin correct me if I’m wrong) between Vidoop’s password plugin and PassPack is:
* PassPack uses online storage, so anytime/anywhere access. There’s also a button to auto-login to websites regardless if you’re on your usual computer, or elsewhere in the world.
* Vidoop’s button is a plugin with storage on your computer. It can be used from a single computer.
In general, plugins are easier to use, so we’d like to release one as an extra, while still maintaining the online storage.

My 2c on Wordpress OpenID–
I just wish they have the option to disable the OpenID feature. I use wordpress to blog, but I want to be able to choose if I want them to handle my identity, or not.
Same goes for AOL, etc. People need to (1) be informed, then (2) make a choice.
Kevin Fox // Feb 24, 2008 at 2:30 am
@ Tara - the Vidoop plugin allows a member to store passwords locally or with myVidoop, whatever they choose.
Cheres,
Kevin
Tara Kelly (PassPack) // Feb 24, 2008 at 4:56 pm
@Kevin - thanks for clarifying. Do people need to install the plugin to access their passwords?
Also, are you able to see people’s passwords?
Kevin Fox // Feb 25, 2008 at 6:26 pm
@Tara - People can manage their passwords just by logging in to their myVidoop account. Though the plugin would need to be installed for the auto-login and password saving to work.
We are not able to see people’s passwords, they are all stored as hashes.

You can now use your Google account for OpenID
