Like William Anderson above, I've received nothing and cannot find any such information on the MyOpenID site.

I used to use Identi.ca for my OpenID (it had a really nice and easy URL ) but I think sometime soon I will start hosting my own OpenID server that I can depend on. I host nearly everything else I use already so what's one more little thing?

The problem with openid, is that really few of website use them !

This is obvious when you think of a website you go never except for important times. I am now thinking of job-seeking websites.
This are websites you register on, and at the end, you get a job, so you leave and forget the credentials. My god, why don't they setup openid ? That would be perfect for them !

Now, if I should remember all my credentials on this websites, I would be screwed, even though I use them every day ! Each have a passwd policy slighty different from the others. So if I must login on them, I use quite commonly the "forgot password" method !

Non-efficient !

It shuts down? Whoaa, I have not seen that memo!

Seriously, where should I redirect to from now on? My yahoo openid probably? It is a pity that openid never really has taken off, and with cookie blocking by default, it often seems to break in mysterious ways....
