Ugh. I groan every time pone more service I like gets herded into the horrible "attached to your Google Account" profile management hell. I wish Google would find a better way to integrate this stuff. Or just let them stand alone.
- freetard 17y agoThey did let it stand alone. And what's wrong with attaching it to a google account anyway?
- idoh 17y agoIt's stand-alone now, but I'd bet that it's part of the plan to link it to google at some point. That's the way these things go.
- ytinas 17y agoWell for one thing, anonymity. If you are very free with your opinions on e.g. youtube, but use your real name with gmail it can be really annoying when a purchase fuses these two.
- nsoonhui 17y agoWhat's the problem with signing in with Google Account? I would like to sign in to my Google Account and have access to all my web apps.
- simonw 17y agoThe problem is that Google Accounts get really, really complicated the moment you start using Google Apps for your domain (which plenty of us do). Here's a good explanation of some of the issues involved: http://www.equalsdrummond.name/?p=267 http://www.equalsdrummond.name/?p=267 I'd love to be able to "just sign in with my Google Account", but Google need to do a lot of work to clean up the mess before it's that simple.
