Jeff: right. Thanks for pointing this out. I agree. They probably do a good job blocking spam behind the doors... Your question still remains, though (how to convince skeptics), and I can't think of a better solution than some sort of disclaimer or something.
Michael: so very interesting. People should definitely check this signup form: http://tools.cisco.com/RPF/register/register.do Because you are doing it so much injustice! First of all, it is huge and unnerving. And it gives you a hint about this only being step 1. There is no "of 6", as you said, so I have no idea that I will need to go through 5 more steps. (They were smart here, if they had indeed written step 1 of 6, I would've given up right from the start) Right. Step 2 of 6. Now they tell me. I quit, sorry. No, I'll push through. I skip #3. Good. Step 6 is the email activation. It starts blatantly with CLICK HERE. Good, I'm logged in. Michael, you've been one step away from Cisco heaven. Which is one humongous profile manager (doh!) Sorry, you lost the best part :) On a more serious tone, this is not so "secure" as it is irritating. The only secure thing is the old-style email activation. Now I'm more convinced that Jeff is right. P.S.: Yes, you do have to choose language twice. On the first page. Amongst the first 5 form fields. Can't miss it. Can't skip it, either. -- -------------------------------------- http://nomorestories.com/ -------------------------------------- ________________________________________________________________ Welcome to the Interaction Design Association (IxDA)!
