Allen Tom for OpenID Board!

OpenID is the foundation for distributed identity, and I'm proud to be working with the OpenID community, and also behind the scenes at Yahoo, to make the vision of OpenID a reality. Unlike previous attempts at centralized internet identity, OpenID is not owned or controlled by anyone, but is developed transparently and in the Open.

I'm OpenID's #1 fan at Yahoo, and I'm running for an OpenID Foundation community board seat. Having a board seat will help give me more credibility when I pitch OpenID to Yahoo's engineers and decision makers. I personally believe that users own their data, and should be empowered to grant informed consent to share their data. Vote for me, and I'll be happy to be the OpenID Community's represenative inside Yahoo.

To vote for me, please join the OpenID Foundation.
