Default Perhaps SSL encryption for the site?

It would be cool if ssl was enabled for logged in users. I guess no sensitive data is being sent or anything, but malicious people could steal account info with Firesheep and other programs, if it's an unencrypted connection.

Default

Unfortunately an ssl certificate is not cheap, and we don't have a bunch of extra revenue to get one. Yes there are free ones, but they put up a scarry message when you go to use it so it would cause more trouble than it is worth.
