A comment on the problem "Oath vs passwords" in Poken:

I hope this can clarify Bernd's problem, one I share:

The OAuth page on Flickr gives this description.
"By authorizing this link, you'll allow DoYouPoken to:

Access your Flickr account (including private content)
Upload, Edit, and Replace photos and videos in your account
Interact with other members' photos and videos (comment, add notes, favorite)
Delete photos and videos from your account"

Beneath this text, Flickr leaves room for the developer (casu quo: Poken) for a description why these rights are needed.

"DoYouPoken provides the following description:

You need to allow Poken application to be able to add Flickr on your card."

Clearly, that's not something we users are easily granting. I have noted before, OpenID would me a more logical approach: easier to implement and safer for us, users. In this case, Poken is asking specifically for all possible rights on my Flickr account while it is not clear why Poken should have the right to delete photos. – Joris, on October 12, 2009 11:16

Perhaps a 'nudge' function would be useful? Just one button to ask a contact to contact you or fill in more details.

Joris reported a problem in Poken on October 09, 2009 20:26:

Promo code is issued while "Fan" level is not yet attained.

On the new pokenHUB, under "points", "promo code", it states: "When you become a Poken Fan, we issue you a Promo Code so you can spread the poken fever and collect Poken points ." Two paragraphs below that, a promo code is issued. Even while I only have 61 points.

Joris asked a question in Poken on October 07, 2009 21:07:

sticky notes icon

Could you give more explanation about the 'memo' function? On the top right of my identity card there 's the icon of a sticky note. Clicking opens a field for text entry.

Can anyone read what I write there, or is this for my own reference?

Joris replied on October 07, 2009 20:56 to the question "How to add PGP key?" in Poken:

For security, it would be important to exchange old-fashion printed fingerprints. But a URL to your openPGP key shouldn't hurt either ;)

Joris replied on October 07, 2009 15:38 to the question "Dutch translation" in Poken:

Not that I'm opposed to a Dutch translation, but should this be such a priority, or can we Dutch read English just fine?

Joris replied on October 07, 2009 15:17 to the problem "Oath vs passwords" in Poken:

I got a Poken the other day and am glad I 'just' have to wait a week or two for OAuth. Although in the case of Poken, I would find OpenID much more appropriate. Just identification, while OAuth is for interaction between sites.

For instance, through OAuth I am giving Poken.com access to my Friendfeed Wall and contacts, without a clear message what that authorisation is used for.

For now, people will have to settle for my website and mail adresses!

Hoe 'private' is het überhaupt als ik dit bericht kan lezen zonder ingelogd te zijn?

Overigens zie ik bij Anne-Marie onder 'Company participation' staan: 'Customer'.

DWizzy replied on June 14, 2009 20:15 to the idea "Implement OpenID for Login" in LinkedIn:

The other way around, perhaps easier for LinkedIn to implement: providing OpenID from LinkedIn profiles. I work with many 'online communities (/blogs/forums and what not) for professionals/ (government) projects. Having to ask (potential) users to register to yet another website is a horde we don't need.
Almost all professionals now have a LinkedIn site, I would love for users to login with their LinkedIn ID using OpenID. The bonus for the community manager is that a LinkedIn resume instantly shows from/for what profession/employer that user is acting.
OpenID is easy to implement, much easier than OAuth/a LinkedIn-specific API.

Oh, and see the 439 votes for OpenID login support at Demand OpenID!

Mobile syncing

What'd be swell to me is SyncML support so I can synchronise OTA with my phone (Symbian S60). Mobile web interface doesn't do it for me, as it will not alarm me or integrate with the phone's menu.
