One of the things I\u2019ve found about try\u00ading to fig\u00adure out iden\u00adtity man\u00adage\u00adment con\u00adcepts and tech\u00adno\u00adlogy is that there are lots of nuances, lots of things to worry about, and it tends to make you more wary (which I guess is all to the good). I now am more care\u00adful about wheth\u00ader web\u00adsites have believ\u00adable pri\u00advacy policies before I sign up for them, I have a num\u00adber of free email accounts for the sole pur\u00adpose of get\u00adting news\u00adlet\u00adters or regis\u00adter\u00ading at web\u00adsites, and I more often fig\u00adure the inform\u00ada\u00adtion on these web\u00adsites is unlikely to be worth the effort. <\/p>\n
It\u2019s excit\u00ading though, being part of some\u00adthing that is import\u00adant and where people are real\u00adising the import\u00adance more day by day, sort of like XML<\/span> in the early days where people start\u00ading say\u00ading, yes I do have that prob\u00adlem and maybe this tech\u00adno\u00adlogy can help solve it. So part of what I hope to do in the com\u00ading year is help the Liberty Alli\u00adance<\/a> fig\u00adure out how to help people learn what they need to know about some of these con\u00adcepts, tech\u00adno\u00adlo\u00adgies, and spe\u00adcific\u00ada\u00adtions. Iden\u00adtity man\u00adage\u00adment is start\u00ading to expand bey\u00adond the \u201cin group\u201d now as more people start to real\u00adise the import\u00adance of build\u00ading it (and secur\u00adity) into sys\u00adtems from the begin\u00adning rather than try\u00ading to bolt it on after\u00adwards. Fig\u00adur\u00ading iden\u00adtity out takes time \u2013 iden\u00adtity man\u00adage\u00adment is inher\u00adently com\u00adplex (well, more com\u00adplex than XML<\/span>, any\u00adway ;-)) and although Ein\u00adstein\u2019s fam\u00adous quote says things should be made as simple as pos\u00adsible, it also says \u201cbut not simpler\u201d.<\/p>\n One of the things that Liberty does to tell people about Liberty-related aspects of iden\u00adtity is to host web\u00adcasts on a reg\u00adu\u00adlar basis. This month\u2019s is on the People Ser\u00advice<\/a>:<\/p>\n The Liberty ID-WSF<\/span> People Ser\u00advice, a key com\u00adpon\u00adent in ID-WSF<\/span> 2.0, is the industry\u2019s first com\u00adpre\u00adhens\u00adive plat\u00adform for man\u00adaging social inform\u00ada\u00adtion with\u00adin an open fed\u00ader\u00adated net\u00adwork envir\u00adon\u00adment.

With Liberty Alli\u00adance People Ser\u00advice, con\u00adsumers and enter\u00adprise users can now cent\u00adrally man\u00adage all of their online social rela\u00adtion\u00adships using a fed\u00ader\u00adated net\u00adwork approach with pri\u00advacy con\u00adtrols built into the sys\u00adtem allow\u00ading users to lever\u00adage the pri\u00advacy func\u00adtion\u00adal\u00adity of Liberty Web Ser\u00advices to more eas\u00adily and securely share social and enter\u00adprise inform\u00ada\u00adtion across applic\u00ada\u00adtions, plat\u00adforms and ser\u00advice pro\u00adviders.
