Same question as bsenftner. I'm not sure I'd be comfortable authenticating just yet.

Aside: what is the risk associated with giving someone your google authentication?

You are not giving them your Google credentials - you are allowing them to use Google to sign you in, confirming your identity (name, email). Technical details are here: http://code.google.com/apis/accounts/docs/OpenID.html - the key point is that your password remains private between you and Google.

Note that the initial setup instructions and videos are in the "Solutions" directory.

I just signed up. Will check it out later today.

I did notice a couple of misspellings: enrol -> enroll, enrolment -> enrollment

Isn't that just British vs. American English?
