This is really good news for us users, because well, it makes life easy. Also "Ubuntu single sign on is built on OpenID so, once all the sites we know about have moved over, we will also be opening up the OpenID service to enable you to log in to any site which accepts standard OpenIDs." So thats again very good news.
As stated, it works perfectly with Ubuntu One, Launchpad and Shipit. However this password didnt work for me with Ubuntu Brainstorm. I hope they will add support for this as well in future.
This new service although based on open source technologies (python, django, apache and postgres, etc.) is closed source, which is perfectly fine for me. I wouldnt security stuff to be made open source when the privacy of a large number of users is associated with it.
