Let me in
Have you wondered how many online accounts you have created in the last few years? I must have created at least 20+. The difficult part in this is remembering the user name and password for each and every account.
Each account seems to have a different format for login and password. So I must have at least 5+ different kinds of login ids and many different passwords. Now it’s reached a point that I have forgotten a few of them.
Recently many financial institution websites have started creating a second layer of protection. They ask you as many as 3 questions and ask you to remember the answers for them if you are not logging from a specific computer.So it makes it even more confusing.
The only viable solution I think is getting a biometric reader. This is getting out of hand.

Biometric: they replaced thumb impression for car key -- only later to find out the thieves cut off the thumb of a man to nick his car.
That's sad but funny.
How do you come up with such interesting titles and content for your blog?
Not sure about Biometric but the way I take of this is to create a simple text file and enter the user name and passwords. I do not enter the complete user name and password but enough to remind myself.
For example if for I have these passwords: appleone, apple1fruit and say apple1FR.. I write it as a****o**, a****1f**** and a****1FR.. something like that. It may sound simple but has helped me tremendously..
