Another hare started from Mary Branscombe’s InfoCard (http://www.regdeveloper.co.uk/2006/03/28/infocard_identity/) piece.

Chris Overd emails to point out that its first sentence "is rather misleading. InfoCard is not, in any shape or form, a replacement for Microsoft Passport". In support, he points at a blog posting from Trevin Chow here (http://spaces.msn.com/trevin/blog/cns!C97E92F3E4DAD144!622.entry).

Well, that seems fair enough, but all I can say is "why not?". I realise that InfoCard can complement Passport but every time I come into contact with Passport I seem to have a lousy time! Perhaps this makes me more inclined to believe that Passport is on the way out. I suppose I should know better by now.
