Hi Friends,

Regular passwords have many known vulnerabilities, and are often difficult to enter on phones. We are working on a better way of logging in, and need your help! Please participate in a usability study that will help us make the Internet more secure. We will raffle off an iPad2 (or gift card of similar value) as a thank-you.

To participate, we want to ask you to run our app, which times how fast you can write three words we give you. (These three-word combinations are more secure than passwords, and typically also faster to enter -- you can read more about this at www.fastword.me.) Since we want to see how people get faster over time, we will ask you to participate at least three out of four, for one month.

Go to https://market.android.com/details?id=research.markus to download our app, or to http://nogg.me to read more and to register to participate.

Best Regards,
Hossein
