OpenID eliminates the need for multiple usernames across different websites. We support OpenID login, which means if you have an account with Yahoo, AOL, WordPress, Blogger, myOpenID etc you can login without registering. If you do not have any OpenID account, you can get one free from here. There is no difference between OpenID and signed up users, we treat both the same. However, some of the OpenID providers do not provide your email address which is required to get the complete set of benefits MonoTouch.Info has to offer(e.g. comment notification via email).
