AOL integrating OpenID across their properties

August 16th, 2007 - Terrell Russell

A new post from Alavilli Praveen on the dev.aol.com site mentions the ongoing and recent upgrades to the AOL account management tools. They have integrated OpenID and have put the functional pieces in place for other AOL products and services to add OpenID via OpenAuth.

Additionally, this is news since they are only allowing OpenIDs from a select group of hosted services at this time. Of course, we’re happy to be right there near the top.

Original post - AOL & OpenID - Status Update:

Since the AOL Account Management site is something in our control, we went ahead and added OpenID support to it - even though user’s cannot really do anything in there apart from changing their profile information.

We currently support OpenIDs from the following OpenID providers:

  1. myopenid.com
  2. claimid.com
  3. livejournal.com
  4. verisignlabs.com
  5. myvauthid.com
  6. openid.sun.com
  7. myvidoop.com

We are open to accept OpenIDs from other providers too - so please contact us via AOL Developer Site with your information.
