OpenID, the open and decentralized way to manage your identity online has gotten a lot of news coverage lately and has been embraced by AOL, Digg, and several smaller companies such as Six Apart, Technorati, Magnolia. Today, Netscape has become the latest to throw their support behind OpenID.

You sent this feedback, and we have been listening. In conjunction with AOL announcing its role as an OpenID provider, and spurred by the rapid pace by which OpenID is being adopted on the Web, on Monday, March 26th, Netscape will not only support signing in with your current AOL screen name, but also OpenID as a way of accessing Netscape.com and My.Netscape.
