Hi, Lisa. 
Lastpass is a well regarded commercial closed-source cloud-based password 
manager. In 2011 Lastpass suffered two apparently unrelated security concerns.  
Like bugs, these are probably unavoidable,  what matters is how they are 
addressed. There have been no documented losses I know of traced to these 
incidents, which is good.  The company committed to publishing an audit but 
didn't,  which is bad. Open source advocates such as myself believe that 
security based on secret code is a weak approach.  Keepass is an example of an 
open-source password manager.  Also there is some question as to whether 
"cloud-based" and "security" are compatible concepts.

I use Evernote, mainly for it's excellent web clipping (it's pretty good about 
guessing notebooks) and hopefully soon, for digitizing documents instead of 
keeping paper copies, if I ever get to that point. I've never gotten around to 
linking anything together.   Joel, can you tell me more about your LastPass 
concerns? My husband is a stickler about security and we use it on all our 
devices.   Lisa /  [email protected]
