    Tech Crunch was reporting on code in Flickr suggesting adoption of OpenID. That would be a big boost for OpenID.

    Maybe, but I’d actually be stunned if there is a single person who uses OpenID who does not already use Flickr. Which means that Flickr adopting OpenID will do little for Flickr and very little for OpenID.
