 * I’m guessing that, having not been updated in three years, that this plugin is
   now dead.
 * Nevertheless, when I activate it, I get the message “The plugin does not have
   a valid header.”
 * I’ll see what other Google Apps SSO solutions there are for WordPress.

 * ivanrojas,
 * [BC oAuth](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bc-oauth/) may fit the bill. The
   first release was broken and had some incorrect service-specific implementations,
   but I believe the author recently updated it, so give that a try (mine is so 
   heavily modified now that I’m going to stick with it instead of the official 
   trunk).
 * If you have any problems with it, let me know and I’ll share some of the changes
   I made to get it to work (the more important Google-related ones are actually
   on the forum already if you check out the `bc-oauth` tagged posts).
 * I’m tempted to fork it to clean up some standards, UI, and usability issues –
   but the author has done such a spectacular job getting the oAuth libraries integrated
   with WordPress that I don’t want to step on any toes just yet.
