Have you started with a hotmail account, a yahoo one later then rediff to rediffmail and next one to gmail?
So do you keep the same passwords for all of them? if not how would you remember?

How about facebook, flickr, technorati/delicious & linkedin accounts and many more?? Do you keep the same login? what if the name was already taken (suppose in delicious) and you have to change the login….how would you remember?

If there was an online application (i tried googling & googling) would you trust it to save such sensitive information?

I’m sure you save your password and your home PC/laptop but i’m sure you’ll need to backup somewhere else right?

where would you save it?

How many of the people you know have email other than their names on it? I am sure you also know people who have ‘creative’ names for their email IDs. I’m sure they have their disadvantages to it. Most of the times the emails are considered as Spam by email engines to be subsequently filtered to the Spam/Junk folder. I’m sure many of my mails have ended up there

For example: I add friends on chat, the chat engine (experience had with Gtalk) just displays my email ID and not my name. How would anyone who didn’t know that the email ID was mine accept me in the first place? I would first have to send them an email informing them about the email ID and then wait for their acceptance, just increasing my work load in my hectic lifestyle

How about adding people on social networking sites? How do you know that the person you found had accepted or ignored your invitation? What if the person had not logged on since ages or was unable to retrieve his/her password; would you treat as a rejection?

In this hectic lifestyle do we really keep in touch with everyone we know? We just update our profiles to let people know we are alive and kicking!!
