Hey Twitter,
I'm an avid user of your site and know that you like to be on the leading
edge when it comes to innovative technologies. I'd like to see you
support OpenID (http://openid.net) as it allows me to use your site
more easily. With OpenID I'm able to come to your site and sign-in
with my OpenID, removing the need to create yet another username and
password which means that you're able to sign-up more people.
OpenID is really easy to integrate and allows users from many large
sites such as AOL, LiveJournal, and WordPress to login with just a few
clicks. I encourage you to check out http://openid.net/ or join the
mailing list general@openid.net.
Thanks.
I’m frustrated

Inappropriate?A great idea. Twitter is *exactly* the kind of service that should support OpenID, and it would add value to both services. I'm surprised it isn't already supported!
I’m nonplussed

Inappropriate?Twitter needs to stay online for more than 24 hours in a row before they start adding any new features.

Inappropriate?i want to use twitter sooooo badly, but i just can't bring myself to do it until they implement openid. maybe i should leave my web dev job on market street and come work for them, where i can bother them about it all day. :)

Inappropriate?I stalled on signing up for twitter for more than a year because I wanted OpenID support. I finally caved am now annoyed every time I have to sit and try and remember my login credentials. Really annoying.

Inappropriate?OpenID support would help protect your login details from being stolen from the many 3rd party twitter sites that are popping up. I'd feel much more confident supplying my OpenID to use those services.
I’m excited by this idea

Inappropriate?I don't think Twitter should use OpenID. I think OpenID is a great service, infact I'm using it now to post this, but I just don't think it will work for Twitter.
I’m confused
-
Inappropriate?I think OpenID is great but I am concerned about having too many things connected.
I’m tired.

OpenID does introduce a single point of vulnerability - the OpenID provider. However, the advantage of this will typically outweigh the disadvantage - OpenID consumer sites don't get your actual credentials as part of the token exchange that's used to log in to an OpenID-enabled site, therefore your username and passwords are much less exposed (true, completely unique and unrelated account details for every site would be more secure, but who can remember that for 100+ sites without either writing them down or using a password manager (both of which are also single points of attack))
It's also worthwhile to note that since you can choose to use any OpenID provider you have access to, you can better control the security of your account information.
