  • The Pros and Cons of OpenID

    The Radar team has a good post up about the pros and cons of OpenID . So what does all that mean? It means that there are a lot of people who have OpenID, but they don't have many places to use them and they probably aren't aware that they have one. It is a good step towards solving some key online identity...

  • An Introduction to OpenID

    OpenID, which describes itself as "an open, decentralized, free framework for user-centric digital identity", has been gaining momentum and getting press in the Identity 2.0 space.

    Kevin writes about Zamzar , a free web-based service that converts audio, video and documents from one format to another (via Download Squad ). Sounds cool, but would you trust them with your sensitive data? I don't know about you, but I barely trust Google or Microsoft with this information. Should...

  • PLEASE NOTE: This blog has moved to Slashstar.com

    Technically, I moved this blog to Slashstar almost a year ago (April 14, 2004), but I've been cross-posting all of my content to both locations.
