This one: OK, it does generate a password from one’s birthday. So what? In what way is the resulting password “better”? If it is high in entropy, it is not likely to be easy to commit to memory, and vice-versa. So, why would anyone want to use it? Or any other password generation tool, at that. There are quite a few very simple techniques that enable people to generate pretty solid passwords with their own minds. Dythtwdapgp?Iiele,dyt?

Just stick to pass phrases: easy to remember, lots of entropy.
