I don't know if it's tech minded, so much as just plain laziness. Clicking a button to say "hey, cool" is a lot easier than filling out another damn form with info you don't need.

Ah, but the lazy option is the "Login with Facebook" button- I'd say the tech crowd are much less likely to click that, for privacy reasons.

I don't typically do login thru FB, but your app was so impressive that I figured, what-the-hell. It's a travesty that it's not higher up in the voting but perhaps the winning entries are more likely to draw the crowd that's more OK with logging in through FB.
