Yes there is a lot of information on the internet but none that I have found is very specific about how it works nor about how it might be compromised. I am not sure how a list of ship related names would help me remember which applied to which account nor that such a list isn't a hackers delight as it narrows down your choices so much.
Just imagine that Photobucket (policy changes) or Yahoo (security issues) were Password Manager organisations. I don't want a solution where the only thing that knows my passwords is something that I don't understand or where it is all held in the cloud.
Keepass sounds interesting. Perhaps not to protect my life savings but to deal with the vast majority of my passwords which are lower priority.
I have been reviewing all this & I am not sure that I even know all the groups/organisations that I have accounts/passwords registered with. Everything that I have purchased online for years has required me to set up an instantly forgotten account that gets remembered when I next shop with them & am surprised that they know me & ask for my password. Some solution is necessary as the list of pass words grows daily.
A bit technical in places, but worth watching.

Wow!!!! The technical bit is easy to gloss over & get the main message.
Most of the password ideas that I have had over the years are rubbish (even though I believed that I was being clever at the time)
! Fortunately my current ideas basically seem to be heading in the right direction.

It will be 20min of your life where I pretty well guarantee most of us will learn a lot.
