This is what I do too. Best solution.

1Password is $30

Password Gorilla is a free alternative that I like. It's less user friendly but if you don't want to pay $30 it's definitely a good solution.

Dropbox is free up to 2 GB, and you can earn more storage by tweeting and inviting others.

I use only 3 passwords and keep them handy by the power of my mind

2 are made of 8 random characters and I use them nearly everywhere

Last one is for important stuff (job data, bank accounts, etc...) 15 random characters changed once a month.

I don't have Outlook. But I've never had any problems with Dropbox.

I use KeepPass, http://keepass.info/

The Drop Box idea is interesting. I've never tried it, but I believe you could store your KeepPass database file in DropBox.

I use the same password for everything and change it periodically. I use it as my cellar user title so I don't even need to bother remembering it. I also disguise my bank account and SS# as phone numbers/email addresses in my profile. that way i can access them wherever I am.






srsly, I have a photographic-memory-math-nerd-type-brain. Visiting a site will be enough to remind me what the password is. Sometimes I forget the ones to rarely visited websites etc -especially if they made me change it when I was in a hurry, I just have them send a reminder/reset to my junk mail account.



oh and this too. for the kid's passwords which have no personal relevance:
