The intention is that signing up to Ma.gnolia should be simple because you can use an existing account userid and password as authentication (Yahoo, Facebook etc or an OpenID account) rather than creating a whole new set of details. This is what they say on their help page:<BR/>"At Ma.gnolia, we think we all have too many website passwords to remember. Each new account with a new password is one more to remember, and one more that can be forgotten.<BR/><BR/>Ma.gnolia lets you join by using an existing identity from a website you already know and trust, like Facebook, Yahoo! or WordPress. You tell us the service to use and your ID (a name or URL), and that service will verify you and will never show your password to Ma.gnolia. After joining, you can use that same account to sign into Ma.gnolia. Spammers hate it; good, honest folks love it!<BR/><BR/>No new password, using a service you already trust. Join Ma.gnolia by signing in, and enjoy a safer and easier web."<BR/><BR/>Of course, if you don't have one of the Identities that they accept then you are required to create one. It's a pity that they don't make this more clear.<BR/><BR/>I am hopeful that one day all sites will accept OpenID, obviating the need to remember multiple userid and password combinations, so would recommend trying this if you don't already have an account with one of the other listed servicesphilridouthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09426066903780907716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7709091161384163345.post-21711696421009739702008-06-23T14:56:00.000+01:002008-06-23T14:56:00.000+01:00Phil,I'm a great believer in social software needi...Phil,<BR/>I'm a great believer in social software needing to be completely intuitive if it is to gain traction. I tried signing up for magnolia and got tied in knots (Yahoo IDs and other seemingly unnecessary security stuff). Eventually I gave up. Just as I gave up on Delicious.
