Services with hCard profiles that also provide OpenID

The following web sites support both hCard on user profiles and the ability to use your user profile as an OpenID. Alphabetically sorted. Feel free to add sites with hCard profiles that are also OpenID URLs here. Please include a link to the site home page (or implementations entry).

All services with hCard profiles

The following web sites support hCard on their user profiles and are thus suitable for importing/subscribing to other sites that support hCard. Sites that you can also use as your OpenID are annotated with a OpenID icon openid_small_logo_white.gif following the name of the site.

Alphabetically sorted. Feel free to add all sites with hCard profiles here. Please include a link to the site home page (or implementations entry), and instructions for retrieving your user profile URL on that site. If the site's user profile URLs can also be used as OpenIDs, please add the OpenID icon openid_small_logo_white.gif following the name of the site.
