OpenID is an open, decentralized, free framework for user-centric digital identity (I stole that from their website). But what does it mean? Well, basically OpenID is a way to authenticate yourself to various places (websites) by verifying your identity as the owner of a particular URL (say, a website of your own). Why this is good or bad, and what the actual implications of it are... well, that's all way outta scope as far as myOpenID is concerned.
What matters is that OpenID is a promising new technology, but from a user porint of view, it's a pain the butt to manage. When I wanted to actually, y'know, get an OpenID thingie of my own, I found there was no satisfactory way to make it happen. My options were to either download a complex set of libraries and build an application to handle serving up my identity, or to set up an account with a third party provider. Since I don't like bulky libraries, and I really don't like the idea of re-centralizing a decentralized framework through trusting someone else with my account credentials... I did what any good Geek would do. I made myself a third option: myOpenID.
