These all sound interesting and useful, but I'll still take paper over these in a heartbeat. I keep all of my passwords into a nondescript notebook (it doesn't say "sekrit passwords inside!! no looking!!), which is kept in a locked filing cabinet along with a messy bale of other files and documents. It's portable, doesn't need power to be readable, and never crashes.
Even if someone found the notebook they would have a hard time using the information, because I use my own shorthand and messy handwriting. I keep a second copy locked up at home.
I do not keep any passwords on my computer because digital storage is too fragile. Power failures, theft, snoopy people poking around my office, hardware failures, and you need the machine they're stored on- no thanks, I'll trust paper for now.

Interesting article, but paper still wins
