I just happend to visit the Google Accounts page and it struck me that this looks like googles version of passport. Yes this currently only works with other google offerings and there is nothing about google allowing third parties to use Google Accounts. But google currently offers Mail, Goups, Social Networking, Localized content, most of the things that a normal web citizen would want.

In the future, I am sure google will also offer a Google Accounts SDK similar to the Passport SDK and that is when we are going to see some fight for market share happening..:-)
