I LOVE Wired<\/A>. It’s the only magazine I read on regular basis (every issue, actually) for which I DON’T have a subscription. That would deprive me from the pleasure of buying it as soon as I spot it on the shelf, thing that happen with other magazines (I am subscribed to Business2.0<\/A>: when I see it on the shelf I can’t buy it no matter how appealing the cover story is, because I know I’ll get a copy in the mail). I did this only for another publication in the past, “I cavalieri dello zodiaco” (u may know them as Saint Seya<\/A> or \u8056\u95d8\u58eb\u661f\u77e2<\/SPAN>), so it’s truly a big deal for me:-). 
I also love neologism, when they capture an important concept that didn’t have a name yet. “Crowdhacking” is one of those.<\/P>
\n

Back to the case on point. In the last issue there is a great article<\/A> that explores the value of online reputation<\/STRONG>… and ways of subverting current mechanisms of attributing it\/using it. I won’t make here the long dissertation you may expect on how Windows CardSpace and user-centric identification schemes can be of immense help there… first, because I’d like you to read the article first (so I don;t have to recreate its context here before saying my thing); second, because when you are writing a book every moment you spend writing something else makes you feel guilty for falling behind schedule \ud83d\ude42 The latter is also the reason for which I’m not being very prolific lately, but I promise I’ll try to do something about it in the coming weeks.<\/P>
\n

There’s really a lot to say on the subject! How reputation is the paradigmatic example of a value that must be retrieved from the IP every time (claims, anyone?), how using token based authentication may suddenly make unattractive to the bad guys a number of botlike attacks, how being able to package a reputation statement in a handy token could truly allow promt reuse across many services (user centered federation, anyone?)…  I’ll make a followup post, but if you have thoughts on the above feel free to comment and start the conversation. Be bold \ud83d\ude09<\/P>
