Simon Willison's talk about OpenID at Google (video.google.com)

Each Second Life character should have an OpenID that allows them to interact with businesses in game. This would let the user do things like logging into the American Apparel website to find all the clothes that they tried on in game.

It would do much to spread adoption of the standard, and it would also be quite useful.

/Not a Second Life player, so possibly a terrible idea


Very good video by the way. It touches on things like implementing buddy lists and filters that are portable across multiple websites.
