<\/p>\nThe RSA Conference this year was outstanding from the perspective of identity technology, Higgins, Bandit, OSIS, industry connections, etc. I was overly worried all week about getting enough interop testing done for OSIS and about my presentation on user-centric identity validation experiences. Yet I survived.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, the reason I sometimes show up for work is so that I can feed my offspring — and they continued to have their own adventures while I was gone. They seem to have lives and minds of their own. My second son distinguishes himself in my household as a Mac user. Weird. Like my daughter, he seems to have some social skills. He certainly doesn’t get them from me. He even likes sports. Lately, it’s been soccer.<\/p>\n
So this is what I missed…<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Is that COOL OR WHAT?<\/p>\n
I have been to some games and have seen something of how the photographer works, so when I looked at the referenced photo site I realize that these photos are from some guy — probably a dad of one of the players — taking photos and then using a service to sell them to sucker parents at outrageous prices.<\/p>\n
Would I fall for such gouging?<\/p>\n
DAMN RIGHT I WOULD. Getting out my credit card now.<\/p>\n
—————–<\/p>\n
UPDATE: Apparently the photo above sometimes is not available. That’s what I get for linking directly to their site. If you really want to see it, or even order an absurdly expensive copy, you can see the storefront here<\/a>. <\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The RSA Conference this year was outstanding from the perspective of identity technology, Higgins, Bandit, OSIS, industry connections, etc. I was overly worried all week about getting enough interop testing done for OSIS and about my presentation on user-centric identity validation experiences.
