I like the OpenID idea, i really do, but i still problem with it because i think it needs not only more backup like the one it is receiving now by the big players, but because there are still lots of quirks that need solving before it can truly be accepted in a mainstream form and get to be what it needs to be.
Some of the problems it had was that it was not Fool proof to implement and there were not enough providers, the providers dilemma has been solved but implementation still needed solving to be truly fool proof.
That is where this nice and simple widget comes in. ID selector lets you select your OpenID provider and add yourself to it quick while providing awareness on the different OpenID supporters there are.
It is a OpenID promotion tool and a facilitator to users that are interested in using OpenID in your blog to identify themselves.
Other benefits as pointed out by Jainrain CEO Brain Kissel in the comments are:
“Additionally, ID Selector can be installed in minutes, is fully configurable by the website operator, and allows “one click login” for return visits by your users (remembers your preferred OpenID)”
Worth a look if you are interested in OpenID
