Password Pill
Keeping track of all your passwords can be difficult. And creating strong passwords is tiring. So what it you could swallow a pill that would authenticate you to your laptop, cellphone, email, etc.
Read this article about this and other ways to simplify your life of passwords. I liked the fact that your stomach acid is the energy source.
Would you take it? Do you trust the FDA?

I think this is a great idea, but I think it can be done very differently than a "pill". On my peronal computer, every time I visit a new website that requires you to create an account. It automatically gives me a very strong, unhackable password and automatically remembers it every time. So for example when I go onto facebook, safari types my password in automatically. I think if more browsers could make their own unique version of this. It would solve the "I forgot my password" problem. Or the "I think I got hacked" problem. In a much better way than a pill.
Great idea, but unnecessary. There is no need for a pill to remember passwords. Most computers save passwords so remembering them isn't a problem. Plus I don't think people have very many passwords to remember.
@Jay and @Austin,
What if your computer gets lost or stolen? What if you use a different computer at home than at work/school?
I think this would be a very cool idea, but that it could also be a health risk for everyone and you don't know as to how long you would actually be able to remember those passwords. I don't think it would be approved by the FDA and could be a hazard to those who have health issues, but I am not a doctor so I could be completely wrong
@Andrew, I agree that it's a scary health risk but the FDA has int fact approved it already!
@andrewemahaney I completely agree. This could impose a big health risk. Also, doctors always tell you not to overdoes, or use un-prescribed meds. You don't want to take to much to remember something as simple as a password! Also, Some may be allergic to it. Check out this website because it shows that you CANT overdoes on things!
