Choice is often not good. Consider these: - Choice in plug type for electrical devices
- Choice in power adapter connection for cell phones
- Choice of driving on the left side or the right side of the road
- Choice of location for the brake pedal in your car. Most anything that is used to interface two items, as is oAuth, is better with fewer choices. Choices increase complexity and cost for both sides of the connection and reduce the number of solutions that are compatible. However, for some reason this fact is often lost on technologists. |
