Let's try this track....

Toy makes an interesting point and I agree. The greatest barrier will be changing the process in which we do business today. Many companies will not want this change to occur - in fact, Novell should get the consumer behind this product before it goes after the vendors.

Actually, there will be some enterprising individuals who will take digitalme and begin to create communities. Just as AOL started out small, so too will these communities. They will grow and flourish with the first phase of digitalme extending the current internet community phenomenon.

After this initial phase and possibly the adoption of this digitalme stuff but someone like MindSpring or a broadband carrier (perhaps AOL?) things can really change. And I think the possibility of this happening is what keeps us glued to this new technology framework.

If nothing else, it makes for great reading :)

Also - what if companies/vendors grasp digitalme to harvest more information? That could be possible.....I mean take the 3 large credit reporting companies. Everyone uses them to check information - would these companies become natural identity vaults?
