Identity Anarchy

Waveset has coined the term Identity Anarchy to refer to the multiplicity of identities and attributes that a single person can have in multiple datastores. Its the darkside of what's often referred to as roles within the Identity Management space. Roles help us both differentiate among the various "hats" we wear (worker, blogger, father, daughter, golfer, etc.) and associate different people with similar interests, privileges or duties. Maybe it'll catch on, maybe not. But if you register for Waveset's Sept. 9 webinar, you can at least see if the term makes sense and is useful.
