Question

I am developing an ASP.NET MVC application and I want to use OpenId.

What is the best option?

• DotNetOpenId
• RPX
• Other???

Does anyone know what StackOverflow uses? Is the Login UI custom-developed, or provided by an API/service?

Answer 1

We use the excellent DotNetOpenId library here on Stack Overflow:

now moved to:

http://www.dotnetopenauth.net/

Our original login UI was provided by ID Selector, but we’ve since rolled our own minimalist version.
