This is about Views Contextual Filters.

Last Wednesday, I felt an urge to carefully write out a list of all the possible characteristics that would make communications technology genuinely free.

If you want to have a native, single sign-on solution that is deeply integrated into Drupal, there is really just one option: Bakery. If you aren't aware of the Bakery module, it is what creates single sign-on between sites like drupal.org and groups.drupal.org, as well as most of the DrupalCon sites.
