Nope, it isn't. I'm just trying it out. If you did sign in, you wouldn't get much. It's just for writing posts. ;-)
It's a case of building my site from scratch, and I wanted a super-light-weight authentication system. So I picked Persona. (Incidentally, I picked it because unlike Twitter or Facebook or whatever, I didn't need any API keys to get started.) There are a few bugs with my implementation. But as it's just to authenticate me to access the admin panel, it's no biggie.
