Dear members,
I'm always working on new things to the website and right now the whole site is up for revision.
One feature that I'm looking into is to have a so-called Single Sign-On Feature. That means that instead of just logging in with your DUG userid/password, then you would also be able to login with another sign-in. Currently we actually have the OpenId signon enabled. But OpenId never became the success it was expected to become, neither here on this website, nor on other websites. Most of you have not even heard about it.
So instead I'm looking into to adding alternatives such as Facebook, LinkedIn or Windows Live ID, so that you can sign-in with that account as an alternative. The Facebook and LiveID is most like the ones you know the most, as they are used a lot on other websites today. If you use any Microsoft sites then you are already using your Live ID in this way.
Some of the options, such as Facebook, would also allow other features to be added, such as automatically getting your Facebook profile picture created as you DUG profile picture.
For new users it would make it much quicker to sign-up. Existing users would have to first login with their DUG account and the link it to the other account.
