ただ、こう書いていた Janrain ですら OpenID からフェードアウトしそうな雰囲気ではある。

Today we have 37signals ID that provides the same functionality with none of the headaches.

We launched Mozilla Labs’ online identity experiment, BrowserID, only 24 hours ago, and the feedback has been incredibly useful already. At Mozilla, we believe in empowering individuals to shape their online experience. Our work on a decentralized identity solution for the Web matches that mission well. Also, because we believe that transparent community-based processes promote participation, accountability, and trust, we will be posting technical explanations, points of debate, and roadmaps on this blog.

There has been lots of speculation regrading whether OpenID is actually useful and I've often asked myself what can OpenID actually do for a company. If you're interested in what OpenID can do for SSO/trust/webapps, then have a read. If you have no idea what OpenID is and want a quick overview, head over to the Crowd 1.1 Release Notes.
