I'm surprised that somebody that has used Stack Overflow couldn't think of a reason to NOT use OpenId - because it's annoying as hell?!

Ted Dziuba did a much better job of ripping into OpenId than I would, so just read what he wrote.

Another good reason - Facebook Connect already seems to be doing very well. As Facebook's membership continues to grow, it's going to make Facebook Connect support that much more valuable.

At some point I suppose Facebook could make Connect an OpenId provider... but really, why would they want to?
