Ten free (and great) applications for your Palm handheld (continued)
#9: YAPS (Yet Another Password Safe)
We all know we shouldn't write down passwords, and we all know we shouldn't use the same password everywhere. But if you don't write them down, how do you remember multiple passwords?
YAPS, shown in Figure J, stores them in a password-protected and encrypted database for you. The desktop version is not free, but the Palm version works perfectly on its own, making sure you've always got your passwords close at hand but safe from others.

Don't YAPS if you don't know your password. Roll over picture for a larger image.
In Conclusion
These are ten of the free Palm programs I use. Each fits a specific need, not trying to be all things to all people. In these days of huge application suites, it's refreshing to know a particular program will do just what I need, and only what I need.
There are many more applications like this. If I've missed your favorite free application, feel free to email me through my web site and let me know.
Heather Wardell received her first Palm handheld in 1997 (from a boss who couldn't get the hang of Graffiti) and has never looked back. She worked in banking as a systems analyst for four years, and then moved into elementary education, teaching computers at a private elementary school for four years. Heather is now a full-time women's fiction writer, and her first novel, "Life, Love, and a Polar Bear Tattoo" is available for free download through her Web site at http://www.heatherwardell.com.
