I need a webmasters database where I can put all the possible details about
my accounts such as hosting login/password, ftp login/password, registrar
name, location login/password. You know, just basically all the crap we
have to try to keep track of in one nice convenient place. Somebody has to
have developed a database app specifically for webmasters.
Then again, maybe there's a better way - what do y'all do?

As for me, I have rolodexes, filing cabinets, Microsoft Outlook Contacts and
of course Dreamweaver notes. I'm scattered all over the place and
constantly can't find a login or password for something or somebody. I do
really well with comm and art skills, but my organizational skills suck.

Hi,

I use an Excel spreadsheet with multiple pages, cause I was too lazy
to create a db. Not a solution for a corporate webmaster but works ok
for an a 'work at home' guy.

Theres a few apps designed for just this job, 'password saver' type
thingies. IIRC, 'coffeecup' even have a freeware version though I admit
I cant be arsed to look it up )

Hi,

Just occurred to me that yesterday I received a link to a free Project
Manager app.
I have not tried it yet, so I cant say whether its of much use, but it
may you to get more organised!


You can download from
http://www.mymarketinggoldmine.com/P...ManagerPro.zip

Its from Dave Isaacs and Aaron Leighton who also run

Wish I had seen this before I shelled out the money for RoboForm. I've been
using RF for a couple of years and it does out quite a bit, but it only
allows you to keep a very limited amount of info. Thanks - I will check
this out to see if it has functionality RF doesn't have.

any special structure on the worksheets?

I'm not sure coffeecup will do it for me. I just ran across "Internet
Organizer Deluxe" which seemed somewhat promising, but I'm not sure that
will do it either. If no one steps forward with anything, I may just take
the time and try to put together my own relational database (built in
Access). That might be a cool project for several webmasters to collaborate
together on and then make it freely available on an open source basis.

At home I keep a log-book, but that isn't really the best way. At work I
have a simple html file with a table in it which holds all my work related
account details. Low tech, but for me I don't have the need to do anything
more fancy.

I've used Snippets http://www.softcircuits.com/snippets/ for years for
storing/organising all sorts of information and find it very user friendly
and useful.

Although I've not heard of this before, Bruce Schneier is a bloody genius,
so I'd expect this to be a very secure way of managing passwords.
