I didn't find this method very convenient.

What I have been doing for years is remember one single password which would meet the password requirements of most websites.

For e.g. &<asterisk>I87yuU

This is 8 characters long, has upper-case and lower-case letters, numbers and symbols (Also if you try typing on the keyboard, it is actually a pattern).

I can remember one such password. Now, I have a formula for any website or app for which requires me to create credentials. This formula will help me add website specific information to the password.

Say the website is news.ycombinator.com, I will use second and third letters of ycombinator which is 'co' and increment both by 1 to make them 'dp' and add this somewhere in the password, which makes it

&<asterisk>dpI87yuU

Now, obviously unless someone knows my encryption technique, even if they get to know password of one of my accounts, they can never know the others.

P.S. I feel I have gone too far to explain this. Please don't hack my Paypal.

I need your email address to invite you.

Invited. Welcome.

I can invite interested people to lobste.rs. Need your email for it.

"Invitations are unlimited, but persons you invite will be associated with your account in the user tree and you may be responsible for them if they cause problems. Please use your discretion when inviting persons you don't personally know."

I'm curious. Which useful extensions are you talking about and why are they not listed in webstore? The one extension that I mentioned has two versions. The non-webstore version doesn't abide to Google's T&C [lets you download Youtube videos].

I hope this goes viral. This is very well written and illustrated with screenshots. I recall my "non-technical relative" had a netbook with 10-inch screen and when they opened up their browser, the upper half would be toolbars stacked below each other.

IE has now tabs and address bar lined up together in one row, almost every browser has stopped showing the menu bar and what not to save the browser's real estate. I understand that privacy is the real concern here. But my screen's real estate is a concern for me. Why can't the concept of browser toolbars end?

Add Hangouts to the discussion. They incorporated SMS into the app, but the implementation doesn't look complete/polished, let alone the app. So, it doesn't provide me an alternative to the OEM provided messaging app, and at the same time they are accessing my SMS messages.

I personally don't use Facebook on phone now, but I would recommend using a third-party app for accessing Facebook on android. I have used Friendcaster, Fast and Seesmic before and found them pretty decent.

Yes. Almost didn't see the drop-down for chapter navigation. Thanks.
