depends on the sites purpose and sensitivity of data I think only banking sites should not allow remember me, otherwise people need it

box that gives the user a choice... persistence is no good for people using shared connections

A good compromise if security is an issue is remembering login and requiring password every time -- assuming you can do this.

if you are referring to plurk...I don't mind it..cos its good that I don't have to keep loggin in everytime...

I'm thinking for my own site, CastRoller. I want to streamline the login dialog. I think I'll keep the checkbox. Its easy enough to ignore
