I like the idea though I'm on opera.

Edit: oh and it requires google login. No thanks.

Here is my answer to the Google/Facebook login question:

Even though there is no privacy downside, people are still afraid of Google and Facebook logins. I guess there's no way to change that perception.

Just out of curiosity, you and several others have singled out Google, not Facebook, for criticism re: the login. Why?
