OpenID is all about you.
Looking to help spread OpenID? Great! Getting involved in the OpenID community is a critical way to help set the direction of the social web. We’ve got a few places for you to start and would love to hear from you.
OpenID development isn’t just about hacking code. In order for OpenID to benefit the widest number of people, the technology must naturally be improved to cover new cases while becoming easier to use.
Check out the list of mailing lists that you can join to take part in the conversations leading the direction of identity on the web.
Find other OpenID developers and hackers in the #openid channel on Freenode.
To participate in IRC, you will need an application like mIRC (Windows) or Colloquy (Mac). You can also chat using the Freenode Web Client.
People are talking about OpenID all the time — turns out a lot of them are on Twitter or using another microblogging service like Identica. Follow these conversations by searching Twitter for openid or following the openid tag on Identica.
We maintain a support forum for end users and other curious folks on Satisfaction. We can always use more help supporting folks who are just getting started with OpenID and have common questions.
We believe that the best way to spread the word about OpenID is to show people — whenever you get the chance, don’t tell people about OpenID, show them.
We’ve collected a bunch of past presentations about OpenID to inspire you to give your own talk. Once you’re done, share it with the community on Slideshare!
