Keeping your identity under lock and key
05/07/2004 01:29 PMLast issue, I talked about the differences between WS-Federation and
the Liberty Alliance schemes for federated identity. While having a
free-ranging discussion with Arvind Krishna, IBM's Vice President of
Provisioning and Security Development, I realized that the major
obstacle to consumer acceptance of federated identity might be the
issue of where data is stored: on the local PC, at a single "identity
provider" site, or scattered among all of the organizations with which
the user has accounts.

Leading Identity Management Vendors Join
Microsoft to Demonstrate Federated
Identity Using Web Services
05/25/2004 11:30 PMMicrosoft Corp., together with six of the industry's leading identity
management vendors, today previewed interoperable federated identity
management solutions based on the Web services architecture (WS-*).
Software companies IBM Corp., Netegrity Inc., Oblix Inc., OpenNetwork
Technologies, Ping Identity Corp., RSA Security Inc. and Microsoft
have successfully concluded work demonstrating how their identity
management technologies interoperate using the Web Services Federation
(WS-Federation) specification, part of the WS Security set of
specifications. In his Tech•Ed keynote address today, Andrew Lees,
corporate vice president for Server and Tools Marketing at Microsoft,
showed how federated identity management based on WS-Federation and
the WS-* architecture will simplify the work of IT professionals as
they seek to cut the cost and complexity of passing identity
credentials across security and organization boundaries in a Web
services environment.

07/05/2004 05:20 PMWhile we try not to keep it too geeky here, because that would be
the easiest way to expose what a fraud I am bore you,
this little script from John Muehlhausen is too useful to pass over.
It lets you, with a tiny bit of Python wrangling, add Iridium paging
failover to compliment your existing pager, meaning you'll have pager
service anywhere in the world without cresting the 150 page-a-month
limit of Iridium-only service.
Of course, you would have to wear two pagers and look sort of
dorky, but if you're already telling your computer to page you via a
Python script you're probably well past the gadget dork threshold (and
good on you).
Oh, and it's not limited to Iridium, either, so you could tweak to
support a second terrestrial pager, so that if a message never makes
it to the first pager, a second person could be contacted. SNPP is
useful stuff.

Don't lock me in
Don't lock me in
01/16/2004 11:04 AMThere's no shortage of articles hyping the Google IPO and today the
Washington Post contributes to the buzz machine with Google Fans Fill Web With Buzz Over IPO. Skimming through it,
I came across a passage (on page 3) that struck me, though I've
probably read the same sentiments a hundred times over the years.
Regarding Google's competition, the Post writes,
Yahoo is counting on its roster of registered users
and its portal status to give it the upper hand...Microsoft, having
seen the rich margins available in search, has also decided to make a
play there...In comparison with Microsoft and Yahoo, many analysts
say, Google is at an inherent disadvantage because it has no locked-in
users: It doesn't require people to pay or register for its
services.
Shouldn't the goal be to have services people use, not because
they're forced to, but because they want to? Though
Google hasn't locked me in according to "analysts," I depend on them
wholly for all kinds of things I do daily online, from spell-checking
to news reading to basic old-fashioned searching, because they meet my
needs. I have no interest in switching to some new improved Yahoo or
Microsoft search unless Google fails me.
It seems to me that Google's on the right track, and the analysts
are full of bunk. Focus on pleasing the users, give them what they
want, and they'll stick with you. You don't need to trap them with
registrations, you need to make it easy and pleasant for them to do
what they want to do and then let them get on with their lives. It
will only be when Google stops giving me what I want that I'd consider
changing search engines. Happy users are loyal users, and that's all
the lock-in you need.

You know, if your
coworkers are so bad about stealing your coffee mug that you need a
lock for it, perhaps you should 1) kill them, or 2) start putting your
cup in your desk. But if you really need to be that one guy that just
has to make a point about it, this Lock-Cup with a hole pluggable only
by a special key is probably a good way to go about it, unless you
work in a tracheotomy ward, then I'd probably just deal with it.

Microsoft
released their technical beta of Windows Media Player 10 for download.
The major features include a new interface, a built in online store
(with choice of stores), an all in one smart jukebox as well as the
most important item: enhanced device support. The enhanced device support
includes Auto-Sync which "enables the seamless, automatic
synchronization of music, video, and even recorded TV and photos to
supported portable devices". It looks like you'll be able to map a
hard drive or storage location like a PPC or Smartphone to Auto-Sync
as well as transfer TV shows from the media center to a portable media
center, we're not sure what is and isn't supported yet but we're going
to check it out now.

The real questions is - and speaking of Real - can this jukebox mix
and match music from Napster, MusicMatch, Rhapsody, WalMart,
etc? How 'bout iTunes?

Lock-in prevents landfill
10/31/2003 09:37 PMThe AP has run a good piece on cellphone recycling that is marred by
an excitingly stupid lede about the likelihood that number-portability
will cause many of us to throw away our phones once we get better
deals under the new competitive rules, and that this will be an
environmental disaster. Lock-in prevents landfill. Cheez.
The new rule that takes effect Nov. 24 allowing users to change
wireless (news - web sites) companies without losing their phone
numbers is expected to motivate as many as 30 million people to switch
within the first year.
Those who do will need to buy new phones. That's because even carriers
that use the same network technologies employ different encryption.
