"LiveJournal is currently up, but still under a DDOS attack. Due to some aspects of DDoS protection system, LiveJournal is temporarily disabling support for third party services (Facebook, Twitter, Google, etc.)." [1:25 pm GMT (Tuesday, December 6)]

Would that affect OpenID logging as well?

I suspect yes, though OpenID login wasn't working for me during testing while Twitter was.

Hm, it's a different system so not directly (unless they've tied the two together somehow). The DDOS probably will mean some trouble logging in though -- we need to connect to LJ for that so it can confirm that $user is who $user says they are.

from the standpoint of LJ support, I've seen a number of two types of reports prior to this announcement while the DDoS is going on:

1) LiveJournal users can't log in to blogger and related services using OpenID
2) OpenID users from any service can't log in to LiveJournal.

Could be mitigation, could be the DDoS itself.

Oh true, I was just thinking of OpenID users from the POV of users on DW, not LJ. So anyway -- this!
