  1. Password Gorilla on Ask Slashdot: Open Source Multi-User Password Management? · · Score: 1

    Password Gorilla is what I chose - after comparing *lots* of passwordmanagers. I wanted a filemanager that be: - free & open source - offline (--> exit Lastpass) - cross platform (I looked at Linux, OSX, Windows and Android, cause that is what my family uses) - not dependent on Mono (--> exit Keepass). Password Gorilla stores passwords in an encrypted file: the password database. Every user has his own file(s). I have a copy of my file on my smartphone, I synch the files regularly. Read all about it and get it here: https://github.com/zdia/gorilla/wiki/ I like it, it does what I want, but to be honest, the GUI looks a bit simple and the syncing of files (across in my case 2 PC's and a phone) is not automized, although I you could write a script for that. It lacks the slick interface of some other passwordmanagers.

    Basically the same as Lastpass, right?

  3. Re:KeepassX in a Dropbox folder on Ask Slashdot: Open Source Multi-User Password Management? · · Score: 1

    Keepass is opensource, if a backdoor existed, it would have been found out , reported , and closed for good. That's what open source is good at.

    As a rule of thumb yes, but only if (!!) enough users / developers take the time to read the code and find anomalies.......

  4. Re:Bing needs to be BETTER than Google on Bing Now Nearly As Good As Google — Says Microsoft · · Score: 1

    Here in The Netherlands the marketshare of Bing is only a few percent. Google has 95% or more. The only ones who use Bing are people who don't even know what a browser is. They stick to the default Internet Explorer browser. Oh - and people in the corporate world, who work on locked down PC's. Most corporate IT departments shove Microsoft products thru their users throats. Bing's search results are lousy.

  5. Re:Similar software on LastCalc Is Open Sourced · · Score: 2

    Interesting, but I can't use it because I don't use Windows. Do you have plans to make it cross-platform (Linux/osx/win)?
