mashup* - 24th April, BT Centre, London
The next mashup* will be held from 6pm - 8:30pm on the 24th April at BT Centre (St-Pauls), London.
Many thanks to BT for their support of mashup*:
The theme will be:
Identity 2.0: my digital identity is an asset, but who owns it?
The evening session will address the following issues
- What is Digital Identity?
- Why is it so important?
- Trust. Who should I trust and why should I be trusted?
- Authentication. How far is reasonable?
- Interoperability. Does this OpenID provider work with that consumer?
- Transactions. Don't confuse Paypal's needs with Digg's wants?
- Complexity. OpenID is relatively easy, Cardspace is somewhat harder!
- Real world use cases. How do I keep my profile up to date everywhere?
Speakers & contributors include:
Tom Ilube - CEO of Garlik (ex CIO of Egg PLC)
Edgar Whitley - Reader in Information Systems (London School of Economics)
Simon Wilison - OpenID consultant (and the best speaker on OpenID we've seen)
Luke Razzell - Founder of the Identity Society
Julian Bond - CTO Ecademy
Graham Sadd - Founder & CEO - PAOGA
Simon Grice - Founder of Midentity/etribes
