In a previous 23 Things program, I did some tagging of posts and set-up a Del.icio.us account. At that time, I understood why we taggged posts (and other things such as Flickr), but it seemed to be an additional chore that I simply didn't have the time (or want to take the time) to do. It was always my intention to go back to my posts and tag them. But I never did. Maybe someday, I will tag those posts as well as these.
My Del.icio.us account also met with procrastination. When I signed up for it, I thought "This is so cool! A one-stop spot for clicking on all my favorite websites!" Alas, I've gone back to Del.icio.us only once in the past nine months since I signed up-- and I couldn't remember my log-in or password! I had to find my 23 Things notes, sort through them and try to figure out if I ever wrote down the log-in or password. Thankfully I did.
When I looked at the Minn23 Del.icio.us account, I discovered an article about the "Five Best Password Managers". Aha! Just what I need with all these 23 Things programs (so I thought). Unfortunately, all the password managers mentioned seem to require special software (such as Firefox) or operating systems (such as Mac or a higher level of Windows than I use). I haven't waded through all the comments to the article yet, but it would be awesome if there was a secure web-based site where I could store my passwords. Then I could more easily access those passwords while working on the computer instead of having to rummage through notes or a notebook (where I now have some of my passwords stored.) If you know of one, let me know.
