There's probably some sites where people don't even want to bother creating a username and just use an email address. But then again... if you're using something like Facebook login and don't want to ask for extra permissions, then you don't have an email and then what... So maybe it's good to take the email address and auto-generate a username from it just like you could take the person's first name and last name from Facebook and create a username from that -- even if your site doesn't actually display the username anywhere to the person on the site. _______________________________________________ New York PHP Users Group Community Talk Mailing List http://lists.nyphp.org/mailman/listinfo/talk http://www.nyphp.org/Show-Participation
