The document outlines the key components of social networks including profiles, relationships, content, and activity. It discusses how viewing profiles and relationships can lead to the discovery of new content, which then encourages further sharing, creating a virtuous cycle that drives social networks. Connecting people through shared interests and making new discoveries is the goal.
Digital ID World 2007 - Understanding OpenidDavid Recordon
The document discusses OpenID, a decentralized authentication protocol that allows users to log into multiple websites using a single digital identity. OpenID is gaining popularity, with over 120 million users, and is being adopted by major companies like Sun Microsystems, 37signals, and Tim O'Reilly who see its potential. The OpenID Foundation is working to promote OpenID through marketing, legal protections for the trademark, and encouraging technical development. Sun is also exploring using OpenID within enterprises through their OpenID@Work program to understand business use cases.
A Social Web Intro at the Internet Identity WorkshopDavid Recordon
Chris Messina, John McCrea and David Recordon used these slides to frame a discussion around what's happening on the Social Web, the product experiences that need to be built and the technologies behind them. From the Internet Identity Workshop (IIW) in May of 2009.
World Religions (RELS-211) with Rein - some notes on IslamNathan Rein
This document provides an overview of key terms in Islam, including:
- Muhammad, the prophet who first received revelations from the Quran and established Islam.
- The Quran, the holy book of Islam believed to be the verbatim word of God revealed to Muhammad.
- The hijra, Muhammad's emigration from Mecca to Medina in 622 CE, which marks the beginning of the Islamic calendar.
- The Five Pillars of Islam, the core rituals and duties of Muslims including confession of faith, prayer, fasting, pilgrimage, and almsgiving.
- Tawhid, the Islamic concept of divine unity and oneness of God and community.
Decentralized Social Networks - WebVisions 2009David Recordon
One theme of 2008 that has led into 2009 is the idea of social networks transforming from monolithic individual sites to peer sites that share people, content, information.
Technologies such as OpenID, OAuth, OpenSocial and Portable Contacts can be combined to help create this vision, though what will it actually look like when it works?
This talk will look at the philosophical changes being led by companies like MySpace, Google, Plaxo and Six Apart, their impact on social networks like Facebook which traditionally haven't embraced this vision, and how these technologies are being used to make this vision reality.
Learning from Apache to create Open SpecificationsDavid Recordon
The document discusses building open specifications for the social web. It notes that open data and services are increasingly important as more things move online. It outlines several existing open specifications for identity, discovery, authorization, relationships, and activities. These specifications were developed similarly to open source software, with communities creating freely implementable standards. However, open specifications still face challenges around licensing, copyright, communities, and incubation of new specifications. The document proposes the Open Web Foundation to address these challenges by licensing specifications freely, using Creative Commons for copyright, supporting communities, and incubating new open web specifications.

This document shows support for the open web through various open source projects represented by icons and logos. It depicts many foundational open source technologies like Linux, Apache, Python, PHP, MySQL, Firefox, WordPress, Drupal, jQuery, and more that power much of the modern web in a decentralized, collaborative manner through open licensing and development.
The document discusses building open platforms and social applications. It lists several things platforms need, including ways to share information, communicate, identify people and their connections, and know what others are doing. The document also notes that combining simple but well-designed features from different applications can create new shared value and building blocks for further innovation.
The document discusses open platforms in Web 2.0 and their potential. It notes that social applications each have great features that can create combined value when used together. As more networked devices are created, they will all need ways to share information, communicate, identify users and connections. However, open platforms must also consider privacy as standards emerge.
OpenID Foundation Japan Chapter AnnouncementDavid Recordon
The document discusses the growing adoption of OpenID as a single sign-on protocol for user authentication on the internet. It notes that over 10,000 websites now support OpenID login and that there are well over 250 million OpenIDs in use. OpenID allows users to log into multiple websites using a single digital identity and prevents websites from having access to user's login credentials. The OpenID Foundation was established to promote and develop OpenID as the framework for user-centric identity on the web.
The document discusses OpenID, an open standard for decentralized authentication on the web. OpenID allows users to log into multiple websites using a single digital identity and URL. It provides single sign-on capabilities without requiring people to use the same username and password on different sites. The document outlines how OpenID works, its security features, adoption rates with over 160 million users, and implementations in both consumer and enterprise applications.
This document discusses OpenID, a single sign-on protocol for the web. OpenID allows users to log into multiple websites using a single digital identity and is decentralized, with no single point of failure. The document provides information on how OpenID works, the basic roles of OpenID providers and relying parties, and how to enable OpenID on a website using one's own server and URL.
This document appears to be an agenda for a bootcamp on OpenID being presented by Simon Willison and David Recordon. The summary includes:
1) The bootcamp will provide an introduction to basic OpenID concepts, how to create and use an OpenID, discuss adoption history and status, and address security concerns.
2) It will also cover security solutions for OpenID, innovative uses of OpenID in code, and include a question and answer session.
3) OpenID is presented as a decentralized single sign-on mechanism that solves issues like having too many passwords, username squatting, and scattered online profiles across many sites. Users can claim and prove ownership of an OpenID URL for authentication
