Did you get a chance to check out the MIX conference this year? I know I'd hoped to attend but was working with one of our customers in London that week.
If you're like me and wanted to go but missed it - good news. The sessions have just been posted online for free view/download.
Sessions here: http://sessions.mix06.com/
Definately check out the sessions on identity -
NGW034 - From "Username and Password" to InfoCard
DIS003 - Today's Identity Crisis, and the Identity Metasystem
For those unfamiliar with MIX, here's the pitch -
“If you do business on the Web today, it's likely that more than 90% of your customers reach you via Microsoft® Internet Explorer and/or Microsoft Windows®. Come to MIX and learn how the next versions of these products, due later this year, are going to dramatically improve your customers' experience. Explore a wide range of new Web technologies that Microsoft is delivering to help you unlock new revenue opportunities and lower development costs. Learn about the future of Internet Explorer and join us in a discussion about how we can build the ideal Web surfing platform to meet your needs and those of your customers.
