Marshall Kirkpatrick writes “OpenID provider JanRain has launched an interesting project called Demand OpenID, which lets users click a bookmarklet whenever they are on a website that they want to request OpenID support on.

From the Vidoop blog “The myVidoop plugin lets you harness the security of your myVidoop account to store and manage your passwords in your personal vault. The plugin saves you time by remembering all of your passwords and then automatically logging you in to the correct site, every time. Passwords are only remembered when you want them to be and all data is encrypted and stored either on your local machine, or online with myVidoop so they can be accessible anytime anywhere. Check it out today and start saving yourself time and protecting your personal data online!”
