Andre has a great post that frames the identity zeitgeist.
Ancient History
- PKI
- Firewalls
- My stack vs. your stack
- Mooooaaannn
Mould
- Strong Authentication
- Federation & SSO
- blah, blah, blah
Old
- User-centric
- Attribute Sharing
- OpenID phishing
- yak, yak, yak
Bold
- Delegation
- Smart clients
- Protocol convergence
- Identity meets payments
- Just do it!
He has been in the business for 6 years. I thought my 3 years was a long time. The irony of it Mould and Old subjects is that it is still way early for all of those things beyond our circle - I had a conversation with a VC this past week and he said 'I know there is something going on here - but it is still way to early.' I hope that with the USA Today article that changes.
