While we have some excellent free password managers like Lastpass, here is something very interesting from "Ford"!, yes a software for your computer from a car manufacturer. To promote the keyless entry system feature in Ford cars, the company has released a Chrome extension which once configured, stores user login details for websites like Facebook, Google, and Twitter and then, whenever the user is near their Mac computer the app detects them via bluetooth from an pre-approved smartphone and automatically logins to the websites.

Imagine the possibility of just sitting down on your computer and getting 'automagically' logged into your online accounts, without hitting a single key or moving the mouse. Although, not very secure I would certainly like something similar to get integrated with my current favorite password manager "LastPass'. A video demonstration and download link after the jump.
