My Future of Web Apps talk as a slidecast

The team at Carson Systems have a pretty quick turnaround on their podcasts; they’ve had full recordings of every speaker up for a few days now. I spent a bunch of time over the weekend splicing the recording of my talk together with my slides, and the result is now available at The Future of OpenID (a slidecast).

I managed to crunch it down to a 41.2 MB H.264 MPEG file; there is also a Flash video version are available on the Internet Archive.

A quick aside: I’m hosting the main video file in the Internet Archive’s Open Source Movies collection. They actively encourage people to submit their own digital artifacts, and once you’ve uploaded something they’ll automatically create thumbnails, derive an FLV version, mirror it to a bunch of places and much more besides. If you’ve got a large video to distribute this is a great way to share it.

  1. Good stuff. I'm planning on leading a session on OpenID at BarCampBoston2 this weekend, so I shall be kicking off with some slides "inspired" by your talk!

  3. Thanks for the presentation! It helped me figure out key benefits of using OpenID.

    I especially like the fact that I can control my identity by using my own domain name as a login. It makes all the difference.

  4. Nice talk!

    Regarding phishing, I think that the solution is not competition but 'dispersion'. It seems that when each user has it's own custom openID service, phishing will vanish. Phishing exists because there are centralized services, used by many.

    This seems to be an opportunity for domain name sellers... just like you pointed in the last slides.

  9. Hey Simon -

    You might be impressed by Ficlets.com - a cool little project that lets you sign in with OpenID - which I can do, because I saw you at FOWA...

    I wrote about it at www.booktwo.org - which I've just OpenID-enabled. Sweet!

  13. I'll be sure to download this as soon as my connection hops back up to speed (a 12GB limit and I still manage to go over...).

    Your How to use OpenID screencast was great - and it pointed me to ma.gnolia too :)

  14. Great talk, very impressed with all the things that are enabled, or you might say, leveraged by OpenId.
