Believe me, I am a Web designer. The reason why this page looks so odd is because you're viewing it in a browser that doesn't support Cascading Style Sheet positioning. It doesn't work in particularly old browsers. However, if you scroll down, you'll find all my content. Don't let this site fool you, I've designed plenty of sites that work in older browsers, this was just my first step towards what is the future of Web design.

Single serving sites: Now unhip

Friday | March 7, 2008 | 6:03 pm  

Single serving sites — thanks Kottke for the name — are all the rage.

But now, they must be considered un-hip, for I have one.

From now until I decide to stop doing it iwantopenid.com will display the name of the site I’d like next to embrace OpenID.

When the site I’ve chosen to direct my lack-of-OpenID scorn at succumbs to my single-serving petition I shall place a new name atop the list.

On a lark, if you’d like to nominate the next site, put it on del.icio.us with a tag of iwantopenid.

A warning to any site who considers providing OpenID without consuming it as well — there will be a special bit of shaming for you. Friends don’t let friends provide OpenID without consuming it.
