Browser Authentication (http://developer.yahoo.com/auth/), Google Account Authentication (http://code.google.com/apis/accounts/AuthForWebApps.html) or InfoCard (http://msdn.microsoft.com/winfx/reference/infocard/default.aspx). The one I like most is InfoCard because it is a distributed system. I could get identities from my employer, bank or even a non-work organization like a sports organization. Then instead of saving all of my passwords for each website I would just use my cards. Fortunately there is already an InfoCard extension for Firefox (http://flickr.com/photos/igb/139296069/).
