What it does

If you want an OpenID provider that gives you email aliases so that websites don´t have your private email information, LiquidID is the perfect provider for you. LiquidID is an extension of OpenID in that it provides protection against abuse of your email and works with OpenID accounts such as Springnote, LiveJournal, WikiTravel and others. LiquidID provides different aliases to the different OpenID enabled sites so that if your email address becomes compromised, LiquidID will reject the compromised aliases. It´s not a spam filter exactly but does allow spam management while ensuring the delivery of legitimate emails without the worry of false positives. Meanwhile OpenID sites can still communicate with you since LiquidID redirects your email to your account.

In their own words

¨LiquidID is a unique email management tool and guarantees no false positives. You will always receive the email you want and can manage spam in the most effective way possible. So simply signup to this unique OpenID provider, sit back and relax.¨

Why it might be a killer

Spam filtering services sometimes allow for false positives, but LiquidID has the advantage of zero false positives and therefore tracks who can and can´t be trusted by using a powerful aliasing service. It´s simple and trustworthy for if any site abuses the alias given, LiquidID will discard every email that uses that alias, guaranteering no disruption to other emails. The URL provided is also simple to remember for it´s just yourname.liquidid.net, so you can use OpenID enabled sites effectively and securely.

Some questions

How often do email addresses become compromised? How does LiquidID recognize which are infiltrated by spam? How are users then notified of the blocked alias?
