I know your focus is on the tech side of this issue (good solution), but you may want to bear in mind that some major mainstream players got into trouble by consolidating data across multiple sites without properly disclosing it in the Privacy Policies.

I'm sure the popup blocker bypassers won't care about this, but this approach may violate privacy issues if not backed up with appropriate disclosures.

In any case, kondro, drop me an email to discuss your technical future:
