I'm sorry I missed this post during the voting time, but I wonder if you'd answer a question - this is the first explanation I've seen of these keys that seems to make things very clear (thank you!). To clarify - are you saying that we should login to steemit with the keys rather than our password? I've never heard that or realized it was a possibility!

It is best to only login with your private posting key, and then only use your private active key when doing STEEM/SBD transactions. Your password/owner key is best to only use if/when you need to change your password/keys.
Thank you! So...is there an easy way to enter the long string of letters/numbers to login? (I imagine saving them in the browser or whatever would be defeating the purpose?)
I have them stored electronically in a text file, so I can copy/paste. You can keep it on a burned CD or flash drive so that it is offline when you are not using it.
Okay, thank you!
