Ok, the subject is ridiculous but I didn't know how to describe the
question, wich is:

How can I use open social to allow any login (google, yahoo, whatever)
to login in my app?

Im feeling thtat I've misunderstood the tool...

Hello Sid:

I think you misunderstood. Maybe you´re looking for Openid - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenID   

You can also check Google Friend Connect.

Let me know if it helps you.

It depends by what you mean 'login'
Google provides javascript based widgets that you can just add to your
html code
and users will be able to click on 'join this site'

But if you want to integrate the GFC with your current site's login
process, then you
need to write a custom script for that. Whatever programming language
you currently use on your site, can most likely
handle this (php, java, ruby, python etc.)

For server-side integration this is a good place to start:
