Whatever happened to Microsoft Passport? The "create one account and use it anywhere" idea...
I just saw a forum post on an MSN site I wanted to reply to - it wanted a login first, but didn't accept my MS Passport account, made me create a new one. And then after I posted, it made me create yet another account to sign up for MSN alerts (to get email if someone replies to my reply). Really? Sigh...
Not only did they not use their existing unified account scheme, they compounded the stupidity by using two separate account systems for a single (to the user) action... this reminds me of some recent frustrations with GoDaddy...
