    The Liberty Alliance Project is an effort to establish a universal online authentication system that serves as an alternative to Microsoft's proprietary Passport online ID system. Both efforts have the same goal: let people surf the Web without having to constantly re-enter passwords, names and other data at different sites.

    The question is will Liberty Alliance Project be more secure than passport. Wait, who am I asking? Of course it will be better in security than M$. Who isn't?
