The reason you dont see it mainstream is because for someone like my mom its too difficult to understand. She does however understand "Login with Facebook/Google/Twitter" because it is simple, one click, approve permissions and done. Anything more is just a hassle for them to remember and they will fallback to email/password instead.

- tomschlick 14y agoNothing is stopping them from doing that with Username/Password or OpenID. In fact I would argue that it probably happens more with the username method because users forget they have an account. With Google/Facebook/Twitter signin they click and that service remembers everything for them and sends it to the app for authentication.
