Notes"We're happy to announce support for the OpenID OAuth Hybrid Protocol, which combines OpenID authentication (sign in) with OAuth authorization (access control) in a single interface. The Hybrid Protocol makes it easy for the hundreds of millions of Yahoo! users to sign into websites with a Yahoo! account, and to enable two-way data sharing of their Profile, Contacts, and Updates, without having to register a new site-specific account or share their Yahoo! password."Unfurl
Notes"Google and Yahoo! (and likely Microsoft to follow) are ultimately competing with one another to become the branded single sign-on solution for the web. The good news for users is that by using the same underlying technology, most relying parties will able to turn on support for any new OpenID provider fairly easily. The bad news for users is that since none of the major providers are also relying parties, using services at each of these site still requires multiple accounts. Further, a sign in box with 100 different logos for 100 different providers isn’t a great user experience."FeedUnfurl

Notes"With OpenID and Yahoo! you don't need to have an identity management server. Simply tap into the millions of Yahoo! users who already have a Yahoo! ID and password."Unfurl
Notes"The following describes a simple protocol for enumerating the members of a group and for determining whether a given identifier is a member of a group."Unfurl
Notes"What if you could say, "by default, trust whatever my buddy Pete trusts"? Or, "trust the consensus of my set of friends; only ask me if there's disagreement"? Or more prosaically, "trust what my local IT department says"."Unfurl
Notes"Wouldn’t it be great if you could use the same account to log in to multiple sites and applications, without having to trust them all with your password?"Unfurl
