I'm not trying to compete with 1Password or sway anyone from using it. This is just a free implementation of Stanford's PwdHash. I wrote it because I was tired of loading KeyGrinder in a browser window. There's also a Firefox extension that will transparently hash password field inputs for you. From what I understand, 1Password data isn't easily accessible away from a Mac, so that might be seen as an advantage for PwdHash.

The master key is clearly precious, and the app take some steps to try to protect it, but at some point it does fall on the user's shoulders. I'm personally willing to risk using a master key in exchange for having unique passwords, because it's easier for me to guard one than dozens.

This seems like a cool quick and dirty way to have multiple passwords for websites but only have 1 master key, but unless I'm mistaken it would break down for any site that requires that you change your password periodically, correct?

Anyone else think Safari's performance has gone to poo poo since Lion came out? I'm trying Chrome again and it just drops a big steamy pile on Safari's face. Especially with any page involving lots of animated gifs or Flash.

The thing that makes me sperg out the most with that is the colored lights are clearly inspired by traffic lights. So if they're showing vertically shouldn't green be on top and red at the bottom?

I've had to re-enter my iCloud password a few times, yes. Seems to fix itself.
