WebFinger is a protocol specified by the IETF that allows for discovery of information about people and things identified by a URI. Information about a person might be discovered via an "acct:" URI, for example, which is a URI that looks like an email address. WebFinger is specified as the discovery protocol for OpenID Connect,〔(OpenID Connect Discovery 1.0 )〕 which is a protocol that allows one to more easily log into various sites on the Internet.〔(Welcome to OpenID Connect )〕 The WebFinger protocol is used by the federated social networks StatusNet〔(Evan Prodromou Speaks on the Future of StatusNet )〕 and Diaspora〔(How Diaspora Connects Users )〕 to discover users on federated nodes and pods as well as the remoteStorage protocol.〔()〕 As a historical note, the name "WebFinger" is derived from the old ARPANET Finger protocol, but is a very different protocol designed for HTTP.〔(Introducing WebFinger )〕 == External links == * (webfinger.net community site ) * (WebFinger information and open source software ) * (sabre/webfinger server implementation ) by (sabre.io ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「WebFinger」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
