TechCrunch Rumor: Facebook First Big Site To Really Embrace OpenID (techcrunch.com) 10 points by ridertech 17y ago ↗ HN
[–] Batsu 17y ago ↗ I'm not disputing the 'rumor' part, but what other "Big Sites" make use of OpenID? [–] sjs382 17y ago ↗ As providers? Tons. AOL, Yahoo, etc. As consumers? Significantly less. news.yc does, magnolia did. stackoverflow does. [–] ridertech 17y ago ↗ Yeah, TechCrunch got the "big sites" wrong as well as the importance of being an issuing party. Being a relying party is useless to FB's 200+ million users.
