Answer the poll.

I'm not sure I see the merit in the extra effort.

Ive been using it ever since they came out with it. I always have my phone on me or somewhere accessible anyways, so its no problem. I keep backup passwords in my wallet, which ive had to use once when my phone was dead and I wasnt around a charger.

I love it. Makes me feel a LOT better about having all my stuff on Google. Before, I was always worried about my password somehow being cracked/logged/seen/etc.... it can happen to anyone. Only a fool would think he's immune to it.... But now, I know that someone would have to have my password AND my (phone OR wallet).... getting both of those would be pretty hard for somebody to do.

And if I notice one is missing, all I have to do is reset access via G

I feel secure enough to log into my google account from an unsecure network now - because even if my password gets stolen, they still don't have access to my account.
