Mobile Phone + Computer = Mobile Computer

Moore's law and convergence are reaching an interesting inflection point.

Would you like a full blown Windows PC that would fit in your inside pocket? With a proper keyboard?

That is also a full-blown smart phone as well? 2 gig memory and 100 gig disk? High resolution screen?

With the Intel Atom processor and new high quality bluetooth handsfree earplugs.

With this, you could travel and attend meetings with everything you need in your inside pocket.

Identity Big Bang

In the beginning, we started out as just one unique physical entity.

Then, the digital big bang occurred, and increasing numbers of digital fragments of ourselves were flung far and wide into the digital universe. Cyberspace is teeming with ill-intentioned aliens. They feed on and abuse orphan digital identities.

Can we save ourselves from this mounting danger? How can we create our own inalienable digital entity that is protected from attack and misuse?

Interesting thought, no?

Reliable strong authentication is one of the remaining unconquered frontiers of computing.
