The British Telegraph will adopt OpenID by the end of February. It will both provide and consume OpenIDs according to this blog post. I will try to get some more information about it. A newspaper, old media. Sounds interesting.

If you are going to participate in a blog clearinghouse like Planet OpenID and you are second, third or even later to the punch on announcing something like this – you should choose to skip it or post some additional original content with the announcement. SO MANY of the posts on Planet OpenID are regurgitations of the same news…(sigh)

Well, first of all I hope you are not referencing to me by writing “so many posts on Planet OpenID are regurgitations of the same news”. I am not aware I am responsible for that often.
So let’s get into detail about this particular post. When I returned home from the office yesterday evening I read an email by the Telegraph’s Shane Richmond informing me about the news. I hadn’t read feeds until then and blogged this. Also OpenID.net (and therefore Planet OpenID as well) was down for a couple of hours yesterday. No feed, no access to the site.
Also not all people reading my blog read Planet OpenID. Well, let’s say I was suprised if all did. So this applies to other blogs included on Planet OpenID as well, I guess. If you feel that’s wrong get in touch with David or Scott about it and demand some blogs to be removed from it. I didn’t ask to be included, it was the other way around.

I flew off the handle there in my last comment. My apologies. I’m just so interested in my new involvement with OpenID and I was frustrated by my own learning curve yesterday. Keep it coming and don’t take any crap.

At least I have learned a new proverb.
Also it’s good to see someone being entusiastic about OpenID.

I was surfing incidentally and came upon a link to the Telegraph and was super excited to use my OpenID in a natural happenstance-way (rather than all the contrived/testing ways so far) and was disappointed it was there…then I returned to you blog and read the fine print: End of February. Oh well.
