This blog entry from simonwillison.net explains how to get your own, personalized OpenID, yet use someone else’s server to provide the service. For example, I am redirecting my spiffy new OpenID to my Vox account, though I could easily change it at any time. Just make sure you put the tags he mentions in the HEAD section of your page or the trick won’t work.
