We’ve worked very hard to keep the system as stable as possible and as fast as possible in that time. However, I feel that during this very exciting time for the team I’ve personally had less capacity for talking more openly to the delicious community about what’s been going on. Given that we’ve undergone a lot of changes and have a lot more in store in the future, I want to resolve to be better about communicating.

The local sites can still allow you to have a local display name. As to the fake id model, you can still presumably use more than one OpenID id, so I do not see this has preventing that safety model.<br />The intent is what certificates do - make sure that someone does not steal your identity.<br />I also think that one should be able to choose how much information gets transferred across when creating an "account" with a new site or network.

ID, or Live ID, or any other similar sytem. I prefer keeping separate identities for each website's services I use. Sometimes I want different usernames for different websites, sometimes different email addresses, sometimes I want to provide lots of personal details, sometimes I just want to give fake information.<br /><br />This is why I don't like Zooomr's login system, and probably the only thing from keeping me from using Zooomr instead of Flickr.

Do I have to sign up for something like Zooomr and then that account transfers? Or do I go to a centralized service whose ID works numerous places?
