Iv looked at it and I don't quite understand its purpose. I know it is a place to hold your identities but it just seems strange to me.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_CardSpace[^] Windows CardSpace, formerly known by its codename InfoCard, is a framework developed by Microsoft which securely stores digital identities of a person, and provides a unified interface for choosing the identity for a particular transaction, such as logging in to a website. Windows CardSpace is a central part of Microsoft's effort to create an Identity Metasystem, or a unified, secure and interoperable identity layer for the Internet.
