Card Space

Last week I attended an MSDN event where they were discussing “Card Space” which is purported to replace usernames and passwords on the web. It was an interesting concept for me because I have become a little overwhelmed with the number of passwords and usernames that I’ve accumulated in the my time as an internet user. Many times I have wished for an alternative, and this sounds like a viable possibility. Also, it sounds highly preferable to implementations that use biometrics to authenticate users.
