FEBRUARY:
Thursday, February 16, 7pm:
**ELECTIONS***
Speaker: Nathaniel Borenstein, <nsb@nsb.fv.com>,
Chief Scietist, First Virtual Holdings
Topic: Open Protocols for Information Commerce
Location: TBD
Traditional one-way payment mechanisms, such as cash, credit cards, and
digital cash, presuppose the necessity of payment validation in advance
of the completion of a transaction. In contrast, a "closed loop"
protocol that verifies both payment information and customer
satisfaction permits a far simpler payment engine in an open Internet
environment, and is well-suited to a broad sub-class of Internet
commerce applications. In this talk, I will present the underlying
philosophy, design rationale, and specification overview for a
recently-developed set of open protocols for information commerce.
