Portable Password Generator
August 7th, 2008 by miked
As a network admin, I usually only use password generators on certain external devices. Also, if someone really pisses me off. Here is a little random password generator for out in the field. It is based on an Olimex AVR-MT development board and only needs a few other bits to complete. <via hack247>

Neat idea, but it seams like alot of trouble to replace a couple random key presses, especially since even an obvious password using all those characters would be uncrackable for most purposes.
btw miked, what kind of traffic numbers have you been seeing since you started this?

The visit count has been steadily increasing. I have been working on an updated layout and have not done any promotion. Once the layout work is complete, I will promote a little. Also need to fix some SEO stuff on the site.

I just found this site today, I consider that a good thing (no, a great thing). Keep up the good work and try to keep it on topic.
Whenever I am learning a new programming language I like to start with a few of the same projects because that is what works for me
One of those projects is a password generator, I have written them in many different languages and I always seem to find a cleaner way of doing it each time. I love hardware hacks and have recently started playing with Pic Micros, and I imagine I will end up building something like this as well (if I end up using it is a totally different thing, though). Great job!
