In short: I discuss Sidebar Gadgets, and I show you how to invoke a CardSpace-protected WCF service from a simple Gadget. Full source code is provided, along with detailed commentary on the road I've followed for getting there. Added bonus: the code shows how to apply an arbitrary configuration file to WCF, an issue often encountered when hosting WCF code in processes you don't control. Sidebar Gadgets are mini applications which live in the Sidebar, a UI element on the Windows Vista desktop. They

Few days ago I have posted a tutorial on combining WPF/E and CardSpace for securing rich internet applications. Literally hours later Daniel Bartholomew , the great guy that extended dotnetnuke with a cardspace ready module , followed the tutorial and published the live example on the web!
