This will Help You To Remember Passwords

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/2/2c/Crystal_128_password.pngRemembering passwords is not an easy task especially if you have different passwords for different account. I have a lot of problem in remembering passwords. In today`s world you are surrounded by passwords in every sphere of life. Be it a bank account password, email-account password or any social networking site password. The list is never ending. Setting a single password for all of them will make it easy for you to remember but it can lead to a serious problem if someone gets the password.

Thankfully, now we have softwares, which manage passwords. Today I will discuss about my favourite password management tool, Keepass .



Keepass works by storing your passwords in an encrypted database, which is locked by one master key. Therefore, you need to remember only your master key to unlock your database. And don’t worry about its safety as it encrypts the database by using two of the most secure encryption algorithms: AES and Twofish.

4) KeePass tells you the information about the bit encryption that it provides when you type the password. It also shows a bar, which lets you know how secure your password is.

5) KeePass allows you to import and export passwords. It supports importing data from formats like CSV files , CodeWallet and Personal Vault text file and exporting data to formats like TXT, HTML and XML.

6) Keepass is portable .So you can run it on Windows systems without installation.

The Google Android powered smartphones by HTC. Their first attempt with mix, the HTC T-Mobile G1, didn't quite had the eye candyish stuff and get a big fan following. And even though Google announced an unlocked Android G1 around the 2008 holidays, people still preferred the iPhone 3G. Gizmodo has uncovered some leaked photos of a new handset which appear to be quite authentic. The first thing you would notice here is its shiny plastic finish, which is very much welcoming from the pale gray look on G1. Also this time around there is not physical keyboard present, which is a little disappointing. Though the touchscreen is large, but we know the current Android interface had some issues. The back side has a new surprise A 3.2 Mega Pixel camera, though even mid range phones for vendors like Nokia boast a 5.0 Mega Pixel camera these days.
