Just when you think Drupal can't get any better for bands/artists...along comes this..
Hi guys,
Spotted a post earlier by Webchick about Open ID now available with Drupal 6 core.
This is great for many reasons - the web is full of login-only sites now and more will follow, so the concept of avoiding filling out registration forms every time you want to have a look or do stuff is very useful.
OpenID is a decentralized, secure single sign-on system. It allows you to create a login at a site you frequent, and use that same login on any other site that supports OpenID. Drupal 5.x and below have supported this with the built-in Drupal module, but OpenID is an open standard, better supported, and more secure.
What it's also potentially useful for is Drupal driven band sites with members-only areas....where the band would like members of another band site to login to their site and vice versa.
