Thanks for all the info, really appreciated.
Seems the consensus for an online wallet is blockchain.info

Blockchain.info is the easiest to use and most accessible. They offer 2 factor authentication.
Instawallet charges its users for using their service and they have control over all the funds.
The safest wallet is a paper one. You can generate a paper waller here www.bitaddress.org

I agree with most, go with Blockchain.info. I do enjoy using Electrum as a desktop client.

blockchain.info
Blockchain.info I'd say would be one of the better ones
I using Instawallet.org
All you need is bookmark the wallet, if you bookmark it on two computers and only small sums for spending, you should be happy with this solution

Just signed up. I don't have much coin, but I feel better about this option.

you can choose a shorter, more memorable ID, which will do a look-up for the 40-char version

very cool, i didn't know that!
That makes it much more usable!!
Thanks I will give it another try - it does have that 40 character user name

Thanks I will give it another try - it does have that 40 character user name - so using from a computer that doesn't save cookies is out.
Also I dismissed it for a dumb reason, somehow I got the language ticker (upper right) changed to german (i'm in usa) - and the hassle of translating every page turned me off. I feel kinda dumb when i realized what I had done.
Will give it another serious look, thanks for the advice.
Do people have multiple wallets - with amounts split between them for safety? Too bad no such thing as FDIC bitcoin wallet
And the scammers get all the press.
Anyway, thanks!
Any other suggestions - of other online wallets people like / rec welcome!

PC only wallet scares me - hardrives crash, and as I've read lately unless you backed up recently, it seems you have lost coin?
blockchain.info is great, but you still should back up your wallet (they have several options for doing this)
My favorite is Blockchain.info's wallet, but it does require a password.
Just interested in people's opinions on the best online wallet.
Sure i want security - but don't want a 20 digit password they generate meaning I have to carry it around.
Got my android wet - so that isn't a solution yet
having all coins in a pc wallet (the default one from Bitcoin - using qt software)
(Pic of the one i mean: http://gyazo.com/e8efc0aa7f70d0995327fd49f49b621e.png?1363232197

Lose your laptop completely, and it is all gone!!
Thus the online (non scam) wallet.
Any suggestions?
