I think it depends on how much of a requirement logging in is to using the site. Gmail wouldn't make sense without a login right up front. But on a shopping site, you want to devote more space to the products, and delay the requirement to login or create an account as long as possible. High content sites with pay sections might be the same way.
Rather than a separate page, it might be nice to use a hybrid modal login, which gives you the best of both worlds -- efficient use of space, with not having to wait for an extra page load to login. There might be some usability issues with that that I'm not thinking of, though. ________________________________________________________________ Welcome to the Interaction Design Association (IxDA)!
