Our very own Zooomr user Raoul has also put together a similar screencast on how to use your OpenID with Zooomr: “Having troubles with OpenID? Make Sure to Watch This!”

    1st.
    why isn’t there OpenID access for comments in your blog?
    2nd.
    I already know how to use an OpenID
    since i keep Livejournal and Type key accounts on hand in case one doesn’t work due to authorization (type key doesn’t work with some)

    Atomic, I’m glad that you’re able to use OpenID! This post was for those who might not be able to.

    About adding OpenID to the blog, that is just something I haven’t been able to get around to — Please note that Zooomr is completely my work, and I’m also a very busy individual — nonetheless, I will look into it!

    Is there a way to change the URL of the open id after I’ve set it up with zooomr? I set it up with a my open id account but now that i know i can set it up for my own domain and then forward it to my open id I would like to do so. I placed all the meta data, but using the url doesn’t work. Do you guys know if this is possible, because it seems like its a key point in the decentralized aspect of OpenID. I know i could just create a new account, but I have Pro4life status and have a kick ass url (mike).
