Whew! You go away for a few weeks and its amazing how much happens. I just got caught up with Marc Canter’s GoingOn Network announcement and the fact that he’ll be using XRI/XDI (along with SXIP, OpenID, and Microsoft’s proposed Identity Metasystem) for identity interoperability.

The vision of distributed service providers powering interoperable identity-centric services (“i-brokers” in XRI/XDI parlance) for individuals, businesses, and communities gets closer every day.
