I used to use a password-controlled PDA which was perfect for this use. Fast, cheap, light, 2 x AA batteries lasted months, proprietary encryption, no simple interface, could be backed up via a special cable to an encrypted file on a PC, and when that died asked for advice on here. For which I got abuse for not being able to remember passwords. <sigh>
That PDA had 229 small text files, one for each web site / service / function. So one text file would look like this:
BCS.txt
Code:
Richard Cranium MBCS CITP British Computer Society Membership no. 990000666 PIN: 1066 Joined 01/04/2011 Security question: Size of dick, answer: head Password: CumShot69 Email account: - UserID: ab12 - Password: piddlydiddly - Addresses: [email protected] & [email protected] - Forwards to: [email protected] Home email: [email protected] Work email: [email protected] Login: [email protected]
One is called passwords.txt and that has details of all the little web sites that one logs in to such as Misco, Travelodge, Graze, Hornby ( ), etc. That has another 2 x A4 pages of web site address, username, password.
I must have thousands of discrete bits of information like that.
My solution now?
I don't have one because the cheap, usable, QWERTY-keyboard PDA market seems to have disappeared.e
