How do you sign up for Gmail without an email account in this case?
- lallysingh 9y agoUse your shudder isp-provided one. Hello IAmBindingMyselfUnnecessarilyTo@comcast.net
- Xylakant 9y agowell, obviously this will not work for a primary account. It also adds friction the signup process, leading to lower conversion rations. But for some use-cases that may be a valid trade-off. Think dating sites, ..., stuff where knowing that a certain email is subscribed already may be embarrassing or worse (gay dating websites in certain countries).
- shinratdr 9y agoOh absolutely, it's a good system and many sites already utilize it. I only mentioned the Gmail example because that's what the article was about, it sounded like you were suggesting a solution for that scenario.
- cryptarch 9y agoISP email or any provider that doesn't ask for a secondary account, like Mail.com.
