Forgot your password? No worries...
I’ve been meaning to upgrade to NetNewsWire 3.0 and tonight I finally visited Newsgator to make the purchase. Unfortunately, I couldn’t remember my account details. No worries: find the password recovery widget, click, enter email, typey-typey, click, wait for email.
As you requested online, we are sending your NewsGator Online credentials to you. They are as follows:
Username: <my username>
Password: <my plaintext password!>

If you’re a developer and that email doesn’t make your eyelid twitch then please take my advice:
Don’t write any sort of login system until you know that plaintext passwords are bad.
I’m extremely wary about giving any sort of personal details to Newsgator now, which is a shame: I liked NNW.
