Really agree to Chris Taylor’s comments…apart from the point of sending plain text passwords to the confirmation email..there should defienetly be forgot password option which should really fetch him the password..otherwise the article is really great…thanks for the post..

I agree with the sentiments posted by a few already that plain text passwords should not be sent in an email. I believe this is part of the reason for depth of the Twitter security breach, when someone gained access to a Twitter employees email account and was then able to find other passwords.

If you give me an easy to find link to reset my password which will send an email and as long as the email will come quickly with a link (that will expire) to reset it, I am happy.

Otherwise great article.

Also I’m curious about the form fields and labels aligning vertically as opposed to horizontally. Brian did you do some A/B testing or eye tracking research on that? Just curious to know if there are any stats about the particular suggestion.
