Secure Password Generator

Master password

This site uses a Base-64 variant along with the SHA-256 hash algorithm to generate different, secure passwords for every site you may visit, based on one master password. Only Javascript is used, so these calculations are done in your browser and no information is passed to any server. Bookmark this page for easy access to all your stored passwords.

The algorithm used here is very similar to that used by SuperGenPass, which is fantastic and you should probably use them instead of this. I'm just paranoid that one day they won't exist anymore. This site, on the other hand, should be around as long as Google is.
