Saving the World with User-centric Identity.
Identity interoperability @ Net2

Posted on Tuesday 30 May 2006

In the panel on Social Networking here at Net2.

Identity and profile sharing between sites is critical to using these tools in civil society. Planetwork where I am Network Director has been a long time advocate for open standards in this sector – the Augmented Social Network paper outlined the vision. We are excited about Open Standards from OASIS - XRI (I-names) and XDI to support identity and data sharing. They are cooperating with the with OpenID on Yadis too.

Planetwork is working on a project to build out open source, open standards based infrastructure to make it all work.

I am also working on i-tags to support identity in tagging.
