Comments on: And Another Thing The Mac Can Do That Windows Can’t: Remember Your  !*?\&^!*%   PaS$w0rdZ! http://www.musingsfrommars.org/2006/09/and-another-thing-the-mac-can-do-that-windows-cant-remember-your-pasw0rdz.html I've been observing personal computing behavior for a long time, and now I have some things to say. Here are my two cents about computing, music, software, and related topics.

The only problem I have with it is it's usability. The fact that there are over 40 password managers for Mac shows I'm not alone in this thinking. Sadly none of them use the keychain nor save you time. This is why I co-wrote <a href="http://1Passwd.com" rel="nofollow">1Passwd</a> which Robert mentioned above. It uses the keychain and integrates into all major browsers (Camino, Safari, Firefox, Flock, OmniWeb, DevonAgent) and it saves you time. For me, it makes surfing the web fun again.

For fun you should make that your password. :-) OK, you’re naive.
