I have an ASP.NET MVC project that uses DotNetOpenAuth as authentication provider. How do I get the username (or email address) when the user logs using https://www.google.com/accounts/o8/id?

switch (response.Status)
    case AuthenticationStatus.Authenticated:
        string userOpenId = response.FriendlyIdentifierForDisplay;
        break;
(...)
