they've already adopted it for blogger
my first bet! i love openID initiatives and Google being involved is a bit of a no-brainer IMHO.
jack.
definitely will happen - it's inevitable.
yeah, it will be a smart move :p
Google already supports OpenID on some of their apps. And the OpenID Foundation announced today that Google (along with IBM, Yahoo, Verisign, etc) joined their Board. This prediction should be closed and assessed.
