The Global Geek Podcast has just posted their 30 minute interview with Sxip's founder & CEO Dick Hardt. The Q&A session covers a range of issues concerning Identity 2.0 such as: the importance of open standards, open source and open data; enabling the creation of an "online concierge"; the beginning of a tipping point with OpenID and InfoCard, which will mean massive changes for identity on the Web within the year; how there are parallels with William Gibson's and Neal Stephenson's visions of a future cyberspace that is a real virtual world; and much more... Of note, the interview segment starts 21 minutes after the beginning of the show.
