Higgins 1.1 web services (planned):
 
;Cloud Selector: The [[Cloud Selector 1.1]] makes your cards available as OpenIDs. Reads card data from an I-Card Service, so no client software is required. ''(Higgins 1.1 only)''
 
;I-Card Service: Some selectors are designed as "thin clients" that only implement the user interface portion and rely on a hosted [[I-Card Service]] for core functionality. ''(Higgins 1.0 & 1.1)''.
 
;CardSync Service: The [[CardSync Service]] makes sure that all of your cards are available across all of your computers and mobile devices. ''(Higgins 1.1)''
 
;Personal Data Store: The [[Attribute Service 1.1]] stores self asserted identity data and makes it available for data sharing with others. It also provides data gateway services to connect the client selector with a variety of back end data stores. ''(Higgins 1.1 only)''
 
;Authentication Service: For 1.1 we are working to make the [[CardSync Service]] and the [[Attribute Service]] rely on an external [[Authentication Service 1.1]]. Eventually the [[I-Card Service]] will also rely on it.''(Higgins 1.1 only)''
 
Higgins 1.0 services:
 
;I-Card Manager: Thin client selectors use the [[I-Card Manager]] Google GWT-based app to provide a web interface to view, update and manage your cards hosted on the I-Card Service. ''(Higgins 1.0 only)''

This page describes the Higgins Selector.

Higgins site card1.png

A card selector is a piece of software that runs on a computer or mobile device. The user can get cards from card issuing websites and can store them in this selector in much the same way a person puts business, library, loyalty and payment cards in their wallet.

  • By clicking on a card you can log into sites. No more passwords.
  • By clicking on a card you express yourself. No more filling in forms.
  • You can share cards with friends and businesses you trust.
  • Some cards create permanent connections to your friends, communities and businesses.
