AOL OpenAuth Launches!

Praveen just blogged about the launch of AOL's Open Authentication service.  We'll be talking about this and more at Web 2.0 Expo.  Why launch another authentication service when we already support OpenID?  Because there are lots of cool things that OpenID doesn't yet support.  I think that it really supports user-controlled consent and permissions, for example.  And Praveen is already working within the OpenID community to add some of these capabilities as well.
