As I regularly check my adsense account, today when I’m about to log-in they have prompt me to update my log-in information to use or associate my gmail account to be used for adsense log-in as well.
They are about to migrate all google accounts to use the same account on all services powered by Google according to their blog to clarify some issues during log-in.
We’ve heard that there’s been confusion among publishers about this login error message — especially if you’re absolutely positive that you’ve used the correct email address when logging in. (And 99.9% of the time, this is the case.).If you’re seeing this error message, this means your AdSense account shares the same login and password as a Google Account, but the two accounts are not linked.We’re working on migrating all AdSense accounts over to Google Accounts,
My take,
1. On adwords and adsense issue, this might be not a good option, we know very well how a certain email account can be compromised. I have experienced this a year ago thus not actually having the same log-in password over the net.
2. Advantage to those who easily forgot different password on sites.
3. Will google not accept anymore other email address like the one on Yahoo (Microsoft-Yahoo possible deal)?
What is your opinion about this?

ease of use and not to many passwords or user login to remember, besides most of the sites are using it now

Having same login/passworddo have security issues… but question is how many of us keep different passwords for different sites/blogs/facebook/myspace etc…
