Thank-you, Tim.

I used to think Wikipedia is great. Lately, my opinion of it is
declining. It's not always authoritative, it's not very stable (article
contents change too much, too often), and other faults. I'm almost
certain I'm not the only member of this list with this view.

No mention was made of OAuth2. Wikipedia did not tell me enough about
it. Is it likely to be available for logging in to yahoo, gmail, and
the other common free commercial e-mail services? If yes, what are its
advantages, disadvantages, and risks relative to Normal password, which
is what I'm using now?
