What's New in OpenID 2.0?

OpenID 2.0 was finally release yesterday. I've put a piece up at Between the Lines on what's new in OpenID 2.0. There's some important capabilities that will move this forward in a big way.

Understanding OpenID

Here's a screencast that Dan Lullich sent me showing how OpenID works using a whiteboard cartoon. Very clever! Dan was also my guest on the Technometria podcast this week. We talked about reputation--go figure.

Reputation at IIW2007B

Doc juggles(click to enlarge) I just posted a summary piece from Tuesday at IIW2007B at Between the Lines: Reputation taking center stage. I also have pictures. Look for more IIW coverage with the iiw2007b tag.

PayPal Really Makes Me Mad!

I got an email from PayPal today: We have reason to believe that your account was accessed by a third party. We have limited access to sensitive PayPal account features in case your account has been accessed by an unauthorized third party. We understand that having limited access can be an inconvenience, but protecting your account is our primary concern. Well, it wasn't a third person, it was me. I used PayPal to collect registration fees for IIW (happening next week). All the money we have to pay vendors, etc. is in that account and I can't get to

Internet Identity Workshop 2007: Day Three

Tuesday dinner at the Monte Carlo in Mountain View(click to enlarge) If you're interested in following blogs about IIW2007, you can look for the iiw2007 tag on Technorati. First thing this morning (after picking up bagels) I went to a presentation on Sxipper, Sxip Identity's login and form filling plug-in for Firefox. I've been using Sxipper since the last IIW and have come to rely on it. When I first started using it, it had some usability problems (at least for me) so I stopped using it for a while. When I switched to Firefox 2.0, however, with automatic

Internet Identity Workshop 2007: Day Two

IIW2007A Agenda Wall(click to enlarge) The second day at IIW started in the traditional way: building the agenda. I was surprised that almost half to rooms stood up to propose a session. The wall is pretty full and there are lots of interesting sessions. If you click through on the thumbnail at the right (two clicks), you should be able to read the details. One of the sessions I attended this morning was on the OpenID 2.0 spec and what's left to be done. There seems to be some feeling among potential users that there is an opportunity lost

IIW2007 Has Begun: Day One Activities

After months of preparation, IIW2007 has begun. Whew! I always feel a big relief when the "train leaves the station" as Mike Jones said. During the introductory presentation Eugene Kim asked how many people were here for the first time and probably one-half two-thirds of the audience stood up. That's great. He also asked how many people had been at the first IIW in Berkeley and there were a dozen or so people in that group. We're starting off differently this year. We broke the group into smaller groups of 7 or 8 and asked them to discuss the

Identity Open Space in Europe

We're going to conduct an Identity Open Space event in Brussels in April. This will be like the one's we've done in Vancouver with Liberty and in Santa Clara with DIDW. Like the Vancouver IOS, this one will also be at the tail end of the Liberty Project meeting--this time in Europe. Here's the Liberty announcement and the IOS wiki. On April 26th, we'll create the agenda (in open space style) at 11am, have lunch, and then begin sessions which will continue until 4pm on April 27th. The early registration fee will be US $195.00 until Friday, March 23,

IIW2007

This is not the Internet Identity Workshop--but going to Croatia to learn to weld might be fun. We'll be doing the first Internet Identity Workshop this year on May 14-16, 2007 at the Computer History Museum in Mountain View, CA. Put it on your calendar now. Registering early will help us plan and pay for upfront fees.

Exploring Interoperability Space

Paul Trevethick has put together a document identifying the dimensions along which components and data flows can be changed in user-centric identity systems. His space is a diagram that is general enough to cover most wire-level interactions of various user-centric identity systems. I found it instructive. For any specific set of interactions with various components some of the components or flows would drop out. This is timely because we're trying to figure out how to do interoperability demonstrations for IIW07 in May. That requires mapping out scenarios that various parties will try to play in. Paul's diagram gives a
