Relevance: 10.84
OpenID is an open decentralized digital identity system that has been gaining traction in recent months. It implements a solution to some everyday headaches such as single-sign-on, but it does not address related issues like privacy, trust, spam prevention, or message authentication. OpenID uses a multiple-stage sign-on process, but don't let that discourage you. As an end user, the benefits are stacked in your favor.

Is OpenID a panacea, a placebo, or something in between? Opposing viewpoints took turns on center stage Wednesday afternoon at OSCON 2008. The session entitled"A Critical View of OpenID" started off as anything but critical, but once the audience got its turn to raise questions, things got more interesting. Moderated by author Jason Levitt, the session featured four speakers explaining the theory, security model, implementation, and importance of the OpenID single sign-on system. Simon Willison gave an overview of the system, Scott Kveton of Vidoop examined its security, Chris Messina of the DiSo project described its potential impact on social networking, and Yahoo!'s Membership Team architect Allen Tom related his company's experience deploying it.

Relevance: 5.68
There hasn't been much of a stampede to implement Internet identity management in the consumer space. Microsoft's Passport was the first serious attempt. OpenID is the second, and as far as I know those two are it. Passport is like a zombie; it never quite dies, but isn't really alive either. It just shambles along, dropping body parts here and there, and often forgetting its own name.
