Today, I’ve been trying various password managers — seems like thousands of mostly complete solutions, all lacking polish. One of them was JPasswords, after I tried it I found a lone file in my home directory, jpws.ini.

Before iCal supported CalDAV, I tried Calgoo Connect to sync my Google and 30 Boxes Calendars. I laughed as it’s menu icon was the only colored one. Bonus was the “Calgoo Connect” folder in my home folder filled with logs and a “data” subfolder.

Java has come a long way from the “write once, debug everywhere days”, but still almost any Java application I try, poop in my home directory.
