Let me be really clear.<br> I like URL's for SSO. I think they are great. I have since the first I heard about them. <br> I think the model is very empowering truly (except for the domain name part) decentralized. I think it will be great for millions of web literate folks. Weather they have their own domain or if they just have a blog and use that URL. The way wiki travel is doing it to support interop between the different wiki travel sites is cool too.
<br><br>I want to see this model flourish. <br><br>This is a Yes AND situation. The AND is I don't think it will work for 'everyone' and particularly the user communities that I got inspired to try and build social networks for the Spiritual Activists. There are lots of web-literate folks on this list who can weave their way through domain naming and setting up stuff on their servers. I feel that part of my role is to speak up for those who are less technically savy and what could work for them in a ubiquitous identity layer.
<br> <br>Diversity is good. Collaboration is good. <br>I hope we can all get along. <br>=Kaliya<br><br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 1/3/07, <b class="gmail_sendername">Dmitry Shechtman</b> <<a href="mailto:damnian@gmail.com">
