A Matter of Taste
Sort by Planet Intertwingly (Free subscription) - 07/26/2008
I’ve started encountering Web pages where the OpenID and Microsoft Information Card/CardSpace, logos sit side by side. Actually, that’s a blatant lie. I think I saw one once, but can’t find it again. Anyway, I thought it would be an interesting experiment to show both logos and see what they thought and by “folks” I [...]
