Even now then web site seems to be down…

So what other alternatives do we have? www.clavid.com seems to have a lot of options, but using your own domain name — the way you could do it with myOpenID — isn't one of them.

My favorite part of OpenID has always been that you can delegate your identity using your own site. myOpenID got increasingly spotty for me, so I switched to Google. If I decide to stop trusting Google, delegating elsewhere is almost no effort.

Here are the magic tags for Google:

  <link rel="openid2.provider" href="https://www.google.com/accounts/o8/ud?source=profiles">      
  <link rel="openid2.local_id" href="http://www.google.com/profiles/[your profile id]">

Looks like Clavid also supports delegation:

Does delegating to Google also work for Google Apps [for Your Domain]?

Yes, if you have google plus profile on this account. Profile ID now means google plus ID.

I just switched to clavid. As @elektronaut pointed out they do support delegation, and their two-factor authentication supports a big list of OTP standards (so it's compatible with the Google Authenticator): http://www.clavid.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view...

I have a clavid.com openid delegated using my own domain...

Oh, cool, I'll tale a closer look at Clavid. Cheers.
