BrowserID support

July 17, 2011 07:27:04 AM

In addition to OpenID and Facebook, Haskellers now supports a new third-party login system: BrowserID. I'll post more information about this to the Yesod blog, but the short story is I think Mozilla has done something very good with BrowserID, and I hope it gets adopted.

Some quick notes: BrowserID uses your email address as your identity. If you've already verified your email address, then BrowserID will log you into your existing account. If you have not verified your address, log into your account using a previous identifier (like Google or Facebook) and then add your BrowserID identifier.

Also, when you use BrowserID, you no longer need to verify your email address separately.

This feature should be considered experimental, please report any issues.
