You’ve probably heard of OpenID, the service which aims to do away with multiple sign-ins by integrating one universal ID for any single user. This means you won’t have to remember a thousand and one passwords and screen names which makes it a whole lot easier to keep all your accounts in order. However, the implementation hasn’t been as successful. This is where ClickPass comes in. They make OpenID much easier to use. ClickPass has teamed up with Plaxo, Wordpress, and a good deal of
Y Combinator sites. Users can sign in to these sites with a single click. They needn’t type in any URLs as with OpenID. ClickPass will also merge accounts if a user already has an existing log-in. All OpenId accounts can be managed through ClickPass. Additionally, by entering profile information on the site, ClickPass will automatically fill in that info to any new sites joined.

“We built Clickpass to make OpenID easy to use and to bring the benefits of single-sign-on to the people who want it most - everyone.
Instead of protecting us though, passwords have become something that more often hinder. Every day, we find ourselves unable to check our phone bill, or change our hotel bookings simply because we can't remember the login to do so.
Over 60% of us use the same password on every site we visit. All of us have been locked out of somewhere at some time and every day we're bombarded with emails enticing us to give away our credentials to would-be attackers.
We built Clickpass to solve that, to bring you the convenience of a single password but with the reassurance of a company whose sole job it is to look after you and your security.”

ClickPass is definitely making OpenID more accessible. Users won’t have to worry about being locked out of sites and joining an existing account to OpenID becomes much simpler. Saves you time and brain cells—having to remember all those different log-ins for various web accounts is tiring.
