I just saw http://uservoice.com/login. It uses Google accounts, Myspace, Yahoo, OpenID and all to sign in customers into its site? Can I do that?
I mean, customers need not register to my site. They can just sign in with their accounts on the above sites.
If you've a solution, I'd prefer a PHP and MySQL based one.
See here: Google Login PHP Class.
Also be sure to refer to the Google Federated Login site for more info.
You may want to look at this too: https://rpxnow.com/ - it will only need integrating at the HTML/javascript level.
It's what http://uservoice.com/login appears to use.
You should look at the OpenID Enablded PHP library (http://www.openidenabled.com/php-openid/).
This should play pretty nicely with any LAMP installation without needing to use Zend.
Zend_OpenId from Zend Framework
Zend_OpenId is a Zend Framework component that provides a simple API for building OpenID-enabled sites and identity providers.

Uservoice users RPX http://rpxnow.com . You can easily use it with PHP, just https and parse the json or xml repsonse. You don't even need to change your database schema or store anything locally.
i think is good solution for you
step by step
1-download openid
2-create file called login.php like this (in same directory or change require_one to your own ) :
<?php
require_once 'openid.php';
$myopenid = new LightOpenID("your-domain.com");//no problem even if u can write http://localhost
if ($myopenid->mode) {
if ($myopenid->mode == 'cancel') {
echo "User has canceled authentication !";
} elseif($myopenid->validate()) {
$data = $myopenid->getAttributes();
$email = $data['contact/email'];
$first = $data['namePerson/first'];
echo "Identity : $openid->identity <br>";
echo "Email : $email <br>";
echo "First name : $first";
} else {
echo "The user has not logged in";
}
} else {
echo "Go to index page to log in.";
}
?>
3-next is about creating file called index.php:
<?php
require_once 'openid.php';
$openid = new LightOpenID("your-domain.com");//no problem even if u can write http://localhost
$openid->identity = 'https://www.google.com/accounts/o8/id';
$openid->required = array(
'namePerson/first',
'namePerson/last',
'contact/email',
);
$openid->returnUrl = 'your-domain.com/login.php'
?>
<a href="<?php echo $openid->authUrl() ?>">Login with Google</a>
i almost forgot for log out u can kill session;
