I like signing up for site updates and DGs that capture my imagination or strike me as valuable.It is a royal pain. Response?
Shared profiles. Let me-the-regristrant give a uid in the form of "username@subdomain.anotherManilaSite.com". the service grabs my profile data (xml-rpc or soap), posts it to my local profile on the new system, and I have the option to edit/adjust the data.
No central big-brother infomediary; redundancy built in. Opportunities for commerce enablement by third parties (when my profile includes credit cards and shipping addresses).
time saver.
