Darren Barefoot and the rest of us need Identity 2.0. He discussed the problem of web single sign-on in his blog posting earlier today. He shows the tedium of repeated username and password login into the many sites he accesses on a daily basis in this entertaining short video. He states, "I don’t know much about identity management, but it isn’t high time somebody solved this problem? Smart people have been working on this issue for, like, a decade and I still don’t have a ID that I can even transfer between a few sites." Darren, it's coming! Identity 2.0 technologies like Whobar allow websites to offer web SSO for login with user-centric solutions such as OpenID and Microsoft CardSpace. Tell the websites you use to end the identity silo madness and support us.
