“On the Internet, nobody knows you’re a dog”
Some very interesting discussions on Kim Cameron’s Identity web log about how to implement secure identity on the Internet. She makes a reference to a Scott Lemon article about his Axioms of Identity and some of the attributes of identity. These articles very quickly move out of the technical into the philosophical - “who am I and how do I know that?” “Who do others say I am, why, and is that the same as who I say I am?” (my example questions, not Kim’s or Scott’s).
