er, Deathstar 2.0 was destroyed by a massive, Lando-led, flame war.

the advantage I see to the OpenID play over the FB play is with the profile portability. I want to own my network (and it's sub sets - work friends, old HighSchool and College Friends, Family etc) and bring that anywhere I go rather than rebuilding it each time I find something interesting. FB doesn't want me to do that and that's one way the keep me in their walled garden.

If you're interested in the confluence of Web 2.0, Social Computing (FOAF specifically) and the Semantic web, you should read "Linking Social Networks on the Web with FOAF: A Semantic Web Case Study. " by Dr. Jennifer Golbeck from UMD. here's the link: http://www.cs.umd.edu/~golbeck/publications.shtml

1) Bilton's use case presupposes the capabilities I outline. The key part of his post for realization of the use case is this: "Why not build out an advertising or search API that delivers the latest micro level tags or ad links of users interests?" Delivery of the microformat tags (or ad links) is crucial before the tubes can understand enough of the data to make the vision a reality. This *is* the baby step. Before that can happen, the info must be aggregated (ok RSS is good enough for that) but then the extraction API's (like OpenCalais or ClearForest or even what Oracle SES does) need to be implemented to extract/create the tags. Then the machines can start processing to drive ads or fuzzy search results or whatever. Barring that you still have google algorithm based pattern matching.

See the new blog post on tapping emergent Social Networks from other social computing activity here: http://tinyurl.com/czu8a4 and then take a look at the enterprise information management considerations around tapping email for social network considerations. http://tinyurl.com/csage2

This is why social media, web 2.0 and e2.0 are changing/challenging the communication paradigms. Neighborhoods are virtual and finally, technology is enabling the kinds of conversations (and therefore truth, sincerity and intimacy) that were once restricted to geographies.

what do you think the Microsoft bid for Yahoo means for OID?

isn't this what OpenID aims to do? If not, how not?
