I know what you are getting at, but IMO it's just a poor excuse to do
it right (which might be perfectly explained by limited resources,
though).
Of course they are different services, as is Google mail, Blogger, you
name it. But there is only one provider of the service, and having to
create more than one account is just annoying. It's perfectly fine to
have a user database that serves different purposes.
In any case, having two different user accounts is not an acceptable
solution for me if it's not just a short-term temporary arrangement.
Bye,
Axel.
