    Cool How do you keep track of your passwords?

    I mainly use a password manager. I also just use the same password for some sites. How do you keep track of all your passwords?

    I use my brain. It seems to be the safest method. Plus do not have that many to remember.

    Brain for me . It is hard I know but that keeps brain in good working position. Try to make some algo for yourself and use it in different sites. Don't panic if you are unable to remember password, I'm telling you a trick . Here goes the trick, there is always a option named - Forget Password or Can't login or Blahh Blahh now click on it and follow . Enjoy .
    I don't need to know everything, I just need to know where to find it, when I need it.
