So I've given up on technological solutions for the problem of proliferating passwords. I'm just going to write them in a Moleskin notebook in a writing system that I invented solely for the purpose of keeping passwords.
Not a fan of Lastpass? - Scoble, Alex Scoble
This will work quite well until the day when I forget how to read my invented writing system. Which is probably going to be tomorrow. - Victor Ganata
I'd rather not have to pay a fee, even if it only does cost $1/month. - Victor Ganata
There's always Keepass then. - Scoble, Alex Scoble
I highly recommend keepass. - imabonehead
I'm not a big fan of centralized electronic password repositories in general. I'm sure I'll repent when I lose my notebook or forget how to read it :) - Victor Ganata
Keepass isn't centralized though. - Scoble, Alex Scoble
I meant centralized in the sense that you only need one password to unlock all your other passwords - Victor Ganata from iPhone
I don't know why but I don't even use the Keychan function on OS X or let Chrome save my passwords. - Victor Ganata from iPhone
1Password? - ronin
But you are willing to write them down on paper. I can think of several ways how that can go wrong. - Stephan Planken from iPhone
But it's Moleskin paper. WHO IS THE MOLE?! - Micah
Oh, yeah, it can definitely go wrong. It just hasn't yet :D - Victor Ganata
I don't think that it's good security to be paranoid to the point of dysfunction. Keepass on your phone or on a thumb drive is pretty darn secure, but didn't pass the functionality test for me personally. In order to use long and very secure passwords, they have to be very hard to type, so having a password manager that's on all of my devices and synced up was key. They encrypt using AES-256 and hash everything using SHA-256. https://lastpass.com/whylast... - Scoble, Alex Scoble
It integrates with Google's Authenticator for multifactor authentication system. My master password is at least 20 characters and if one of my devices was lost, stolen or otherwise known to be compromised, I can get in, change my master password and all other passwords fairly quickly. - Scoble, Alex Scoble
And, I'd likely be unable to read my handwriting in a year. - Scoble, Alex Scoble
