Velruse - Python Library for OpenID, Facebook, Twitter, Google Login http://mitchmckenna.com/items/view/9387/velruse-python-library-for-openid-facebook-twitter-google-login

"Velruse is a set of authentication routines that provide a unified way to have a website user authenticate to a variety of different identity providers and/or a variety of different authentication schemes.

It is similar in some ways to RPXnow with the exception of being open-source, locally installable, and easily pluggable for custom identity providers and authentication schemes.

You can run Velruse as a stand-alone service for use with your websites regardless of the language they're written in. While Velruse itself is written in Python, since it can interact with your website purely via HTTP POST's."

Catfish - Trailer http://mitchmckenna.com/items/view/8071/catfish-trailer

This trailer spiked my interest after I saw several posts about it in my twitter stream, including some who saw a pre-screenings:
"Just saw a screening of Catfish. Wow. Avoid spoilers at all costs." - Jeff Cannata
"If Catfish wasn't scripted, then it is the best documentary I've ever seen. Awesome film!" - Zadi

Plot: It’s the typical online story. Boy meets girl on FaceBook, they start talking on the phone, boy and girl start calling each other baby, boy wants to meet girl, you know the drill. However, the whole thing takes a very Alfred Hitchcock turn towards the end.

The website's pretty amazing as well, check out http://iamrogue.com/catfish

The Social Network Movie Trailer http://mitchmckenna.com/items/view/7670/the-social-network-movie-trailer

Columbia Pictures has released the first teaser trailer for its upcoming film, The Social Network. Like the poster that debuted last week, the teaser is sparse in its detail, but intriguing and provocative at the same time.

Otherwise known as “the Facebook movie,” it's based in part on the book The Accidental Billionaires. It chronicles the formative days of Facebook, from its founding in Mark Zuckerberg’s Harvard dorm room through its early rise to success. It hits theaters this October.
