Unlike Facebook, Mozilla's efforts have always been open source. Participating browsers and websites can extend and build on the basic specification Mozilla provides. Their universal ID, named Account Manager, is no exception. Any participating browser will be able to make up its own high-security password and remember it for use across websites. Right now, account manager is in its fundamental stages of development, and is only open experts developers to play around with; but it should be available as a standard part of the Firefox browser person.


A browser is the perfect medium on which to carry a user's identity. And along with the user identity, it could also carry complete information on a person's personal preferences for use across websites.
