tl;dr: Jeff Atwood says websites should offer OpenID or OAuth authentication.
edit: ok, the sarcasm in this comment may justify it being downvoted, but can someone kindly explain what is being said in this article apart from: "having many logins/passwords for each site is not nice, we should all support OpenID/OAuth"? Because I really don't see any other piece of information.
- mooism2 16y agoTake this with a pinch of salt, because I didn't downvote your comment, but your comment doesn't add anything to the article. It's just noise and doesn't advance discussion.
- gregschlom 16y agoFair enough. I guess the merit of this article is to create the opportunity for this discussion. Reminds me of someone (can't really find who now) who said a few months ago that HN is like going out for a movie and a dinner. The value of it isn't really the movie and the dinner, but the opportunity of discussions it creates. So... yeah :)
