So, in short, pros and cons are both due to the server oriented nature of the
app. Convenience of informatio stored on the server versus the
security/control-of-your-data question of your personal data out of your
control. Kind of a toss-up, it'd seem. As long as they are reasonably strong
on not sharing that information (or selling e-mail addresses for spam), that's
about the best one can do.
