BrowserID is a good first step, but ultimately as a website owner I'd much rather authenticate with Twitter/Facebook, since it makes it easier for me to figure out who the user is/ask them to share with friends.
Identity is cool, but Facebook is winning the 3rd party connect game right now because it offers websites syndication, which is more valuable than just authentication.
I'd love to see a BrowserID that can also grant permissions to Facebook, Twitter, etc.
- AndrewDucker 15y agoI do not want to link my Facebook with anything else. Nor do I wish to link my Twitter to that. I do not trust either of these companies, or have a strong attachment to them. If they want to support BrowserID then they can - as username@facebook.com or username@twitter.com
