yadis (OpenID?)

Brad Fitzpatrick, Danga, May 18, 2005

The distributed identity idea is heating up. Robin Good offers a longish article on my mIDm proposal. Meanwhile, Ben Hunt sends email with information about a similar proposal, ID Plus. And most interesting is this item, 'Yet Another Distributed Identity System' (YADIS), which Danga's Brad Fitzpatrick wrote to me about today. Danga is the company behind LiveJournal and Movable Type, which makes this an interesting and important initiative. It's going to happen. It's just a matter of time now. And the next step? Combine this idea with something like Outfoxed, which I linked to yesterday.
