In the case of google and stackoverflow, instead of using this:

http://www.google.com/accounts/o8/id

or http://www.google.com/profile/kilimanjaro

which I never remember, how about just providing

username@gmail.com and let gmail.com/openid/username do the magic?

Never put the burden on the user...
