If you are using Yahoo as your provider, you should be able to enter "yahoo.com" as your identifier for most sites.

This will trigger an Identifier Select authentication request, where the actual OpenID identifier is only determined when the response is sent to the relying party. This way, all users of an identity provider can use the same starting URL.
