Lobbying

Other sites being lobbied to use OpenID

• DreamHost -- Currently they give customers "Web IDs" for logging into multiple local services. They are considering whether to update the system to allow OpenIDs to be used as Web IDs and vice-versa. This is up for users to vote on in their suggestion box area.

Your Support Counts!

If you really like the idea of OpenID make sure you bug the support staff at places like:

• Blogger [Home | Contact
  • Petitioning is apparently doing some good; they now offer OpenID on your blog URL.
• Goowy Goowy

• Your minis
  • Not a blog/wiki per se but they do have a blog and a forum but it would be nice to access the instant messenger and rss through OpenID as well as their other service

• EasyJournal Home | Contact

• MySpace Home | Contact

• Xanga Home | Contact
  • Notoriously bad at standards support.

• Gallery2 Home
  • Vote for id 1307398 | Search & Vote | Details

• SourceForge SF - now supports OpenID

• Wikipedia - see this and this

Add any other blog or wiki sites to this list and be sure to let them know that you want OpenID. As you get responses, please list their plans to implement OpenID above and update as necessary.

A nice short and sweet message to let them know that their customers want OpenID might read something like this:

When do you guys think you'll be implementing OpenID for comments?
