What's the opposite of mojo? 
| | One cruelty of political journalism is the commision of autopsies on living patients. Such is the case with The Guardian and the reportedly terminal Dean campaign. |
Technoratification
| | Dave Sifry, in the middle of his talk on Technorati hacks here at eTech, just said "I want you to blog this link." So here ya go. Also this (right click to zoom in) and this (same). The point of the last one: many more little clusters than big clusters ("lest you think this is a broadcast medium"). |
Whydentity
| | ALL of the identity problems on the Net today come down to this: the thing that everyone is clamoring for (in one way or another) -- be it with web services or what have you -- is the ability to *exchange* data in a dynamic fashion. [again, i mean exchange in the broadest sense: interact, transact, interchange.] |
| | The dynamic exchange of data is a true fundamental alteration in the communication system. That alteration requires that identity be a core component of the infrastructure. That alteration will bring the "revolutionary change" that everyone senses the internet has brought (it hasn't, really -- not yet; its just a precursor). |
| | Internet: presentation
Identinet: interchange, exchange and dynamic interaction. |
| | Internet: a publish and pull mechanism. (post and reply and link)
Identinet: a PUSH and pull mechanism. (dyanamically change priveleged data) |
| | Imagine the possibilities when we get this one done.....btw, i'm NOT saying that there shouldn't be a componenet of anonymity (all of you astute readers might notice that BOTH SAML and Liberty now provide for the anonymous use case).....i AM saying that our core infrastructure is missing something critical. |
| | I've been saying for some time that identity infrastructure needs to be added to the Net's suite of core services. This is the kind of thinking-out-loud that should help get us there. |
All the news that's fit to teach
| | I'll give my own report on the DDTI later in Linux Journal. Meanwhile, here's a rundown of sources who were on-hand for the event: |
| | Jeff Jarvis, The Eyeranian, Tim Oren, Scott Rosenberg, Joi Ito, JD Lasica, Justin Hall, Many2Many, Ross Mayfield, Jon Lebkowski, Danah Boyd, Plasticbag, Wired News, Techdirt... plus many more at the DDTI's own aggregation page. |
| | I was also interviewed by David Pogue for Sunday Morning on CBS, for a segment on the Internet and politics. The segment will run on February 29: Leap Day. (I'm on a slow Net connection here at eTech and can't figure how to navigate to the Sunday Morning page of the CBS News site; but you can find it if you look around, I'm sure.) |
