Nice introduction, however when I try to use ACS with sample MVC application I've found couple of issues, not sure those are my mistakes or something to do with ACS itself.
First one is when I use multiple providers for ex: Live ID and Google, when the MVC application is directed to ACS login page instead of presenting the login page as shown in the video I've got following error page
Error
Sorry, an error occurred while processing your request.
HTTP Error Code:
403
Message:
ID2010: The request scope 'http://vinjaya:63000' is not valid or is unsupported.
Trace ID:

However when I try just with the Live ID as only provider then it works fine.
Then I try to remove Live ID from my provider list by keeping the just the Google. then I've got this error.

Does this mean we must use Live Id or am I doing something wrong here?

Gotta love that instant gratification! The free part is always a big bonus. I'm still getting an error message, though, so will have to see what is inaccurate before the instant gratification kicks in.
