It could be ugly, but it could be the killer app OpenID needs…

By markcross

The “why get an account to the site” question is going to be replaced with the desire to be rewarded for the use of OpenID. Visit site X with an OpenID provided by below-the-line marketing client Y and get Z back as a voucher delivered to your phone as a QR code. OR perhaps turn it another way round, brands are going to sponsor OpenID providers log-in real estate, to redeem the voucher offered on your log-in page, you just follow the affiliate link. Brand awareness no longer a finely honed mystery, but actually a measurable science.
