Zero Friction Account Setup
I'm working on a new web service and I'm trying to allow the user to get deep into using the service without giving any personally identifying info. I've been advocating other people do this so I need to walk the talk.
I like how StackOverflow animates top of page divs to give status change updates to your account. I'm going to combine that with a cookie based automatic user account generation to allow people to instantly start using the service but keep asking the user to add their personal info.
We'll see if actual users like it.
