Excellent article!
I think you've done a great job on this article, and it has given us some things to think about if we are ever to move forward with digital signatures. For what it's worth, I agree more with your assertion that the friction is the problem. We need simpler means of dealing with all of this. It reminds me of the "old days" of e-mail using UUEncode and UUDecode to work with attachments. Until they largely idiot-proofed attachments ("Just click the paper clip"), most people would not bother.

Major clarification, your cert expires but a signature does not expire  georgeou | 07/31/07
