The problem Building a good user experience is difficult

Password anti-pattern

We need to project personas

It’s The Nascar problemwar also a brand power

The Nascar problem

The return has to be much greater than the effort

RSS/Atom feeds A true data portability success story

You can integrate thousands of data sources into new applications

You can simply chain data sources together so the sum is more valuable than its parts

You can create pluggable tools for your users

The future

Portability Open API stack

We don’t really own data in the same way we own property

The value of most data decays over time

Data can be replicated and its ownership diluted or lost

1 Add microformats and RSS/Atom to your site

2 Make sure your URL design is RESTful

3 Add OAuth to all your password protected RSS feeds and web pages

4 Think about discovery

5 Reconsider your concepts of data ownership Build systems that time decay data

Chaining open standards together provides massively greater value than the sum of the parts
