A good read on the two poles of digital identity & why we need both Jamie Lewis: Ends and Means - Identity in Two Worlds. Jamie Lewis of the Burton Group updates his thoughts about digital identity following PC Forum. Reflecting on my experiences at PC Forum, I became keenly aware that two evolving worlds understand each other poorly, and how, perhaps, digital identity is the subject that will allow (or force) them to understand each other. Lewis goes on to describe the world of ends (consumers) and the world of means (big companies). Although they interconnect, they're really two different worlds and a common digital identity solution that spans all of the needs and stakeholders is unlikely. [Scott Loftesness] 2:40:51 PM
