Dawn Foster schreibt auf Gigaom über die Indie Web-Bewegung:

The Indie Web movement is primarily about ownership and control over your identity. The difficulty is that many of the tools that we need to achieve the complete vision of data ownership just don’t exist yet, or they exist, but not in a way that is accessible to most people. During IndieWebCamp, we focused on discussing these current issues and starting to build some of the tools necessary to make the Indie Web a reality for regular people.

MyProfile intends to provide a solution for managing the numerous accounts and profiles that users have on the Internet. Its main purpose is to provide a unified user account, or simply ‘user profile’, which as opposed to current ‘silo’ profiles, would really be under the user’s control, on a device controlled by the user.

Es gibt übrigens auch einen OpenWebPodcast zum Thema WebID…

While the best known current social networking sites on the Web limit themselves to relationships between people with accounts on a single site, the Social Web should extend across the entire Web. Just as people can call each other no matter which telephone provider they belong to, just as email allows people to send messages to each other irrespective of their e-mail provider, and just as the Web allows links to any website, so the Social Web should allow people to create networks of relationships across the entire Web, while giving people the ability to control their own privacy and data.

As the Web becomes increasingly a focal point for economic and social activity, there is an urgent need for trustworthy, widely-applicable digital identity management. This includes the need for authentication and authorization to work across multiple web-sites, enterprises, devices, and browsers in a uniform and easy-to-use manner.

Am Tag als delicious starb machten sich alle (zu recht) sorgen um ihre Bookmarks und es entfachte eine kleine Diskussion unter Geeks, wo denn die eigenen Daten am sichersten wären: Jeremy Keith verwaltet seine Bookmarks nun selbst und schickt nur Kopien an delicious & Co., Tantek Celik tweetet auf seinem eigenen Webspace und sendet nur eine Kopie an Twitter, …
Früher hatte man seine Daten in Sozialen Netzen und benutzte APIs um sie in die Sidebar des eigenen Blogs zu bekommen und jetzt läuft alles andersrum?
