Given that the average Internet user is much closer to "Googles [facebook login] to get into Facebook and assumes the first result is right" than they are to "Implemented OpenID for their day job", and that I'm in the second group and still can't reliably speak about the subject without having a glossary in front of me, I'm thinking if you even have to say "OpenID provider" you've already lost.

"... I'm thinking if you even have to say "OpenID provider" you've already lost."

Yeah, I've tried to explain the OpenID idea (just the idea) to people, and I just get crickets.
