Inappropriate?Hi Ro11z,
To login at an OpenID enabled website, enter your myVidoop OpenID. This looks like: "username.myvidoop.com". -
Inappropriate?so you telling me that Email to ID dosnt actully make my email address a openID ???
ow well back to useing my yahoo openID :(
i just want to sign in with my email address instead of having to remeber a Stupid URL :(
I’m frustrated

Inappropriate?Sorry, Ro11z. I think I misunderstood what you were trying to accomplish. It is certainly possible to use your email as an OpenID on websites who support this feature of OpenID.
To set this up:
- visit emailtoid.com
- enter your OpenID
- choose the email address you'd like to use in place of your OpenID
- confirm this choice on emailtoid.com, and you're done!
After this, you can enter your email address on sites like Magnolia or any other site that supports EAUT. They will check emailtoid.com for an associated OpenID, and complete the normal sign-in process.
No more Stupid URLs. :)
I’m assured of this.

Inappropriate?right iv done all that got it all set up but when i try to login to identi.ca or even getsatisfaction. it keeps saying its NOT a valid ID
why is this ?
do sites have to have added support for NON URLs ??
I’m Confused

Inappropriate?Ro11z,
Yes. Email to ID is a new OpenID standard that we have helped to write and implement. Unfortunately, not everyone supports it yet.
We are working to convince sites like identi.ca and getsatisfaction to adopt the new standard. Hopefully, everyone who supports OpenID today will support EAUT as well.
In the meantime, continue to let your desire to use an email address rather than an URL be known. There are very few things as persuasive as hearing a feature request directly from the user who wants it.
We'll be doing our part to increase adoption, too.
You can follow the feature request for GetSatisfaction here.
