Major Single Sign-on Work Starts in the UK and Australia
Major Single Sign-on Work Starts in the UK and Australia
When I started work on DRM for eduSource, the demand for this sort of service was heard from some quarters. But a single signon is contrary to an open system.

First Generation Electronic Paper Display
First Generation Electronic Paper Display
It looks and feels like the iPod of e-book readers, and prices about the same, and is, according to Sony and E-Ink, the "the world's first consumer application of an electronic paper display module."
