so you get a unique id to log in with for openid, <br>e.g (<a onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)" href="https://johncumbers.myopenid.com/" target="_blank">https://johncumbers.<span id="st" name="st" class="st">
myopenid</span>.com/</a>),<br><br>for oww, currently the equivalent is <a href="http://openwetware.org/wiki/User:Johncumbers">http://openwetware.org/wiki/User:Johncumbers</a><br>which is a bit of a mouthful. <br><br>If we are serious about hosting openID's (which I think we should be) could we look in purchasing
<a href="http://www.oww.org">www.oww.org</a> from whoever owns it (worth $1000 maybe?) so that we could have something shorter like:<br><a href="http://johncumbers.oww.org">http://johncumbers.oww.org</a><br><br>or maybe this, (without the new domain)
<br><a href="http://Johncumbers.openwetware.org/">http://Johncumbers.openwetware.org/</a><br><br>not a big deal either way, <br>cheers, <br>John<br><br><br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 3/5/07, <b class="gmail_sendername">
