I agree with Bryan Tiller: a logo is a visual shape and you can act

Hey IxD friends.
I know many of you are still drifting down from the mountaintop experience
in Vancouver, which truly sounded inspiring from the reports on Twitter and

But we're already looking ahead to March.
I'd be interested in seeing that as well.
However, (putting on my security hat) do not store passwords in any form
that can be retrieved and displayed to the user. Store them in some
sort of one-way encryption or hash and require the user to reset the
password if they've forgotten it.
