[OpenID] OpenID in de praktijk

[Timan Rebel / Rebelic]

I've written a report of the OpenID event in The Netherlands at
http://rebelic.nl/status-of-openid-in-the-netherlands-report-of-the-openidentiteit-event/
most interesting was Hyves announcing OpenID Relying party support besides
there role as an OpenID Identity Provider.
Here's a summary of the talk Yme Bosma gave yesterday:

Next is Yme Bosma <http://www.linkedin.com/in/ymebosma> (business
development at Hyves) with a talk about Hyves as an OpenID Identity
Provider<http://rebelic.nl/hyves-als-openid-provider/>.
He explains that Hyves Connect consists of:
OpenID<http://rebelic.nl/tag/openid/>
, OAuth <http://rebelic.nl/tag/oauth>, Open
Social<http://rebelic.nl/tag/open-social/> and
the Hyves API’s. The Hyves API’s will become Open Social REST compatible
within a few months. Hyves is also testing with OpenID-in-a-pop-up and they
have an optimized landing page for OpenID logins for mobile devices such as
the iPhone or the T-Mobile G1.

Yme continues with explaining the difference in attribute extraction at
Hyves between OpenID AX and oAuth. OpenID AX provides public data and has a
static API. oAuth provides both public as private data and has the option to
run speficic actions on Hyves through the API’s. They choose this model
because oAuth is build for access control and OpenID for identification.

Hyves is opening up to the world to extend their social network to third
parties and make that network more relevant to users. Hyves is using OpenID
and oAuth  to make it ‘easy and safe’ for users and ’simple and
standardized’ for developers. The biggest news from Yme was however that
Hyves will become an OpenID Relying Party. It will be possible to connect
third party OpenID accounts to existing Hyves accounts and use OpenID to
login to Hyves after that. Hyves is the second large Social Network to
announce becoming an OpenID Relying Party. Facebook did this a couple of
weeks ago.
