  • 37signals dropping support for OpenID on May 1, 2011

    I have been a supporter of OpenID for a long time. But I agree with the decision by 37signals to drop it. What could have been never happened and, as it would seem that not much is being done to fix that, it would be better to just get rid of it so as to…

  • OpenID may very well belong in the browser

    David Recordon, who is the Open Platforms Lead Tech at Six Apart, has written one of the most insightful and interesting ideas for the adoption of OpenID I’ve seen in awhile. David suggests that your identity belongs in the browser. It is already in there anyway. For any of us that browse, for the most…

  • Problems with LiveJournal and OpenID

    Back on May 25th I uploaded this screenshot to my Flickr account hoping that someone else would have had the same issues that I was having using my OpenID while trying to leave a comment on LiveJournal. Yet, no one has responded yet. Fast forward nearly a month and I’ve since emailed Live Journal, did…

  • Why I’m building Nilai

     I’ve got a new nights and weekends project and its name is Nilai. Nilai is a simple bookmarking service and over the last few weeks I’ve been having a lot of fun working on it in my spare time. In fact, I have found it so valuable to me that it is now my homepage…

  • Footnotify

    [Footnotify](http://openideas.ideon.co/2011/rehabilitate-disruptive-footnotes) is a great extension for Safari or Chrome that enhances the default way these browsers handle footnotes. I’ve been using it for a week and I can’t imagine not having it now.

  • Ma.gnolia Blog: On Our New Front Doors

    Ma.gnolia, my favorite social bookmarking service, recently switched from merely supporting OpenID to actually restricting all new user signups to use the authentication platform. This received a lot of attention – most good – while Matt Mullenweg (and others I’m sure) chimed in to say that this method shouldn’t be viewed as a good strategy…

  • Build \”nice\” software

    Lachlan Hardy, or the guy I broke bread in Austin with courtesy of Ma.gnolia‘s own Larry Halff and an openID discussion directed by Chris Messina, recently jotted down his thoughts on "sharing the love". "We spend a lot of time on the web. We’re building software that makes people spend even more time on the…

  • Ignite at the Web 2.0 Expo

    Tonight Donna, Chris Tingom, and I went to Ignite at the Moscone Center in San Francisco. We had to drive down from Santa Clara (from the offices that Viddler is borrowing to pump out the next version of our site) – and the drive to San Francisco is pretty fun. Ignite was a great event.…

  • The sweet smell of ma.gnolia

    I signed up for del.icio.us in November 2004. I bookmarked a few URLs in the first few months, then didn’t use the service for over a year. I was always teetering between wanting actual browser bookmarks and wanting to have a publicly available list of bookmarks. I used del.icio.us on and off but ended up…
