TypeKey service changes

This evening we released many enhancements to our TypeKey authentication service. For this release we addressed some lingering issues, and implemented several new features. Here are some of the highlights.

• For new users, we streamlined the registration and account activation process.
• When you login to TypeKey, you can now elect to have the system remember you for up to two weeks, streamlining the commenting process for users who comment on TypeKey-enabled blogs frequently.
• We introduced a new page that is displayed to TypeKey users if their email sharing preference conflicts with the requesting site's email address collection requirements.

A note to developers that have built applications that integrate with TypeKey: this release does not change the TypeKey protocol, and should not have any impact on your applications.

We're very excited about this release, and hope that it will simplify the TypeKey registration and authentication process.
