Hello everyone:

I am trying to implement OpenID as one preferred option to my next web app here

The code is taken from this tutorial and works if I use my openID from myopenid.com

However, I believe most people would just love to use their everyday email address as their openID, as far as I know, Google, Yahoo, and some other big players have already done this in their systems.

My question is: how could I find the correct "url" to enter in the form to login? I used my Google OpenID account for StackOverflow and it works just fine. I try to copy my openID like this:

www.google.com/accounts/o8/id?id=aitoawllano10bzdzp3ht0diffry0qt6_j2ls-m

And paste it directly into my form, but it doesn't work.

I also tried to remove the url parameter, but that won't do, either.

Thanks a lot in advance for any tips and suggestions.
