Here’s something wacky : your site won’t let me log in with my delegated ID (singpolyma.net) – that works on most sites.

I’m a big fan of delegation – I think that a delegated OpenID is 100x more useful than a tied-to-provider ID, because it makes full use of the federated nature of OpenID – if I don’t like my provider I can switch without it affecting a thing.
