Keeping Passwords II
August 31st, 2006[ Geek ]
So it’s been about a week since I started trying out KeePass and it’s done. I’m sold and now using it fulltime.
This is one of those problem spaces that I’ve kept saying ‘someone must have solved this in a decent way already’ and as confusing as it sounds it’s taken me years to find an app I’m happy with. Sure there’s proprietary apps out there but I don’t like the idea of locking my passwords up in a commercial app so finding something open source was key.
Anyway, for what it’s worth, KeePass has my endorsement. I also never thought I’d make use of features like password generation but I am. The copy to clipboard features are plain slick. While I have yet to play around with it, the auto-type feature is…well I’m out of words, is awesome still a cool word?
