I’ve got a couple of new tidbits we’ve rolled out that I wanted to talk about. They’re targeted at two of my favorite user groups: international conferences and tech geeks.

Time zones

Despite my repeated denials, the entire world does not reside in Pacific Standard Time.

In fact, in addition to the conferences we’ve been working with stateside, we’ve had an increasing number of overseas conferences (Web 2.0 Berlin and ApacheCon Europe are good examples) that needed proper time zone support.

And that’s exactly what we’ve done.

Conference admins, if you click the “About” link in your admin section, you’ll see a drop down to change your time zone.

OpenID 2

First off, I should say, OpenID isn’t just for geeks. Sick of remembering a bunch of different passwords on a bunch of different sites?

Yeah, so am I. So, if you’re a User of Authenticated Web Applications, OpenID is probably worth reading about.

The actual news here is that we now consume OpenID 2. Enjoy!
