1Password and Dropbox
Rob Griffiths (a MacWorld Contributing Editor and the creator of the Mac OS X Hints site) demonstrates something that I’ve been doing — and loving — for a while: Using Dropbox to synchronize your 1Password data across all your Macs! LINK TO VIDEO HERE

1Password is one of a slew of newer applications that help regular people (not just the Über-geeky) to make and use stronger passwords. Though some might disagree, I think that the risk of not using a strong password is greater than the risk from sending encrypted password data via https onto an encrypted server. Highly recommended!

Let’s hope that this ends up as more than a conceptual reference design!
