  1. Passwordsafe is safe and handy! But when I need to sync across multiple PCs, log on to my site from my iPhone, or share accounts with others, etc.

    I combine the best of 2 worlds by using MashedLife.com’s open source
    integration with Keepass and Password Safe!

    Stay cool and progressive!

  2. I hadn’t heard of Password Safe until Saturday – thanks for the recommendation. It is amazing to see almost daily the number of great applications becoming available. Any other suggestions? What other tools do you use for your ministry?

  3. John passed on this suggestion via email, and I thought it would be worth sharing with my other readers:

    A free, easy and secure password manager I currently use is Password Dragon and it works on Windows, Mac and Linux. Best of all I have a copy of it on my USB which is handy as a cross reference but it does require Java runtime which is now available on almost every machine.

  4. OK, Steve, notetaking…

    After your STRONG recommendation of Evernote, I’m slowly changing over from Chronos SOHO notes.

    But I find the iphone interface for evernote very clunky, because all the info is not on the mac, it’s very slow to search.
    Plus, if I’m out of phone range, which happens a lot in Dubbo, or on a plane, I can’t access notes!

    Hmmm..

    So I LOVE thinks as a task manager,

    but struggling to find a good notes app.

    Hi Wayne, I guess Evernote has its limitations! Here’s a post I just came across with some other note-taking applications suggestions:

    Let me know if any of these do the job for you.
