slashdot
A news alert pointed out to me that OpenID's made Slashdot again. I went upstairs to talk to Brad about it, but as I was headed up there I considered how annoying it would be to read the first comment, which is the typical utter moronity* I expect from slashdot, and so after conferring with Dina I decided he could just learn about it tomorrow.
But as I was typing that he just walked by and asked me what I was smiling about, so never mind.
* I'm pretty sure it's a troll, though?

OpenID
I did noticed that it's implementation is already resulting in some Spam on LiveJournal.Re: OpenID
Sigh.. "I did notice"I really sure use the "Preview" button.
Re: OpenID
That's not your average garden-variety spammer. That account is one person who has posted fake spam in a few high-profile journals (such as
news) in order to make a point. It wouldn't be too hard, though, to just manually log in with an OpenID identity and use the generated session ID to post comments from a script. It won't be long, I'm sure.

Makes sense - thanks for the clarification.Re: OpenID
