Scott Hanselman talked about his <A href="http://www.winterdom.com/weblog/ct.ashx?id=36a6d58e-a2bf-4cde-909a-6a1028f89536&url=http:%2f%2fwww.hanselman.com%2fblog%2fTheProgrammerPhasesOfGriefOrLanguageTranslationIsHarderThanItLooks.aspx">experience</A> with it a few weeks ago, though I'll admit that frankly, the fact that the library is in Boo didn't really cause me any concerns. I still don't know Boo, really, but the syntax is simple and clear enough that following the code and even attempting a few modifications wasn't really a problem. I do want to take a deeper look at it, though, as it is pretty cool.</P> <P>But I disgress. This post is not really about Boo, but about actually putting the library to good use to build an OpenID-enabled consumer application. The API for the library is actually pretty straightforward, and takes care of most of the grunt work of implementing a Smart-mode consumer application (as far as I can see the public API doesn't allow you to implement a pure dumb-mode application). However, after fighting a lot with it, I still couldn't get it to work correctly.</P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/F0B1F4CC-33A1-42E0-B58C-DFE5A3C65140/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
