https://www.google.com/accounts/o8/id

Goggle provides the above URL for OpenID. During the conversation with 
Google's OpenID provider they send you back the unique identity URL for 
the specific account.

Google also provides OpenID support using a personalized URL via Google 
Profiles:

http://google.com/profiles

So if a user has a Google profile they may enter that as their OpenID 
URL.

For example my Google profile URL is:
http://www.google.com/profiles/r0b3rt4723
