<div>You may have heard about [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Openid OpenID] . If you want to get started, you're at the right place. What is OpenID? Here is a [http://simonwillison.net/2006/openid-screencast/ screencast]. OpenID has been [http://dev.aol.com/aol-and-63-million-openids adopted by AOL], so anyone with an AOL account has an openID.<br />
<br />
==Contributor==<br />
We are using open sourcee software created by bootstrapper Tom Brown.<br />
<br />
==5 Steps for Early Adopters==<br />
1. Go to [http://myopenid.com MyOpenID] and register an OpenID. For instance, [http://bijoy.myopenid.com/ Bijoy] is an early adopter.<br />
<br />
2. (''optional'') All the cool kids are making their blogs their OpenID. To do this, link from your blog to the URL you just registered. This is called delegation and you usually do this by editing your blog template so that you can add two lines within the <HEAD> tags of your HTML. For instance, Bijoy might add the following to [http://bijoygoswami.com bijoygoswami.com]:<br />
<br />
<link rel="openid.server" href="http://www.myopenid.com/server" /><br />
<br />
<link rel="openid.delegate" href="http://bijoy.myopenid.com/" /> <br />
<br />
3. If you're not already logged in, log in to the wiki with your legacy credentials<br />
<br />
4. Associate your new OpenID with your legacy account [http://www.bootstrapaustin.org/wiki/index.php/Special:OpenIDConvert here]<br />
<br />
5. Forget your old credentials.<br />
<br />
==What now?==<br />

For instance, if you already have an account at Stuffopolis, you can do steps 3-5 for Stuffopolis [http://www.stuffopolis.com/wopr/profile.php?config=personal here]. If you don't already have an account, registration with your new OpenID takes about 5 seconds. The [http://www.stuffopolis.com/wordpress Stuffopolis Wordpress blog] also uses OpenID.<br />
