title: What should I use Android AccountManager for?
body: <p>I've seen AccountManager in the Android SDK and that it is used for storing account information. Thus, I cannot find any general discussion of what it is intended for. Does anyone know of any helpful discussions of what the intention behind AccountManager is and what it buys you? Any opinions of what type of Accounts this is suitable for?  Would this be where you'd put your user's account information for a general web service?</p>
