Social software, etc
The embryonic Social Software Alliance held a "happenin'" today, where I lurked awhile, and learned, mostly: don't try to step through code in a debugger at the same time as concentrating on a conference call. Later, Bryan Field-Elliot from PingID wrote a really interesting followup (ie. I don't fully understand it)... to my main point: I believe the blog is the perfect foundation upon which to house a personal DigID infrastructure. That's because, unlike your email server and unlike your static web site, blog software is (A) evolving rapidly and creatively, and (B) is already well suited to produce and consume RPC events. So my participation here is aimed primarily at fishing for ideas on how to creatively fuse the worlds of DigID (and I'm thinking of Liberty specifically), and blogging.Now, I haven't a clue about the Liberty Protocol, and I'm not at all sure how decentralised strong identity management links with blogging (which is why it's completely missing from my RSS presence strawman), but it's quite clear that weblogs and "strong social software" such as Groove will have a lot in common over time. Personally the part of that intersection I'm fascinated with is somewhere around "group usability" and "inter-domain plumbing". Bryan says (my markup): I'll be fishing for ideas from the likes of Marc and Nikolaj, who are starting from the other end of the stack (that of interesting UI's), and work to meet them in the middle with a comprehensive, security-minded protocol infrastructure. |
