Great posts and all of this ... http://www.timrenshaw.com/blog/archives/43 Been a long time since my last post.  Indeed, it has been a long time since I did much more electronically than check my email and spend some late night hours hanging out with my Alea Iacta Est buds in WoW.  Why is that, you may ask?  My wife and ... http://www.timrenshaw.com/blog/archives/42 As I discussed in ID Theft Confusion, I'm much more concerned about ID Theft than I am any number of fraudulent uses of my stolen account information.  This story, "ID Theft - After-shock review" and the report it references, "Identity Theft: The Aftermath 2007" should help convince you to be equally ... http://www.timrenshaw.com/blog/archives/41 This is what I posted over at Web Worker Daily in response to a great post by Mike Gunderloy, "OpenID: A Contrarian View".
