Good article about the proliferation of passwords

This article makes the case for Open ID without even mentioning it. The journo is having a valid moan about the proliferation of passwords in her life and talks though a number of tools and policies she uses to protect them.

A great example of a "consumer's view" of the problem, and should help the techie community take a step back to understand the real problems consumer face.

Of course what we know, and she doesn't, is that if she had an Open ID (and it was widely accepted), problem would be solved!
