TechEd - Women (and something about CardSpaces)
I think I know why the teched moved to Barcelona again :-)
But now i have you're attention:
It's the last day of TechEd and the info keeps on comming! Yesterday i attended a discussion session on CardSpaces. I was realy sceptical about it, but the discussion kept be around the participants moms. (And dads in case of the dodgy sites he visits :-) ). This is, at least in my opinion, a very good thing as we IT geeks allready know what HTTPS means, but the Identity Metadata system (IMS) is realy to give all the mums and dads out there more insight in what they are asked when they get a dialog at amazon.com about SSL.
CardSpaces is the MS implementation of the IMS designed by Kim Cameron (Witch got hired by Microsoft) and there are other open source implementations of it.
As i said: I was sceptical, but after the whiteboard I think it's pretty cool and can have a chance. I will get back to it in more detail, because i have to run now...
