I am using blockchain.I like it,i feel it very safe.
I am using multibit. My internet connection is slow. With other bitcoin client it take hours to synchronize. But Multibit finishes it within minutes. So i am using multibit.
1/100 of my coins on blockchain.info....rest in Armory offline.
is multibit the only other wallet that you can use the backups from blockchain.info?
As far as i know Electrum also let you to export/import (back up) private keys.
I am using blockchain because I feel its better then others and I feel secure with this
Yes blockchain is good and I also use it and feel good with this.
It's the best thread about bitcoin clients. Found a lot of good info here!

I am using blockchain too. because Blockchain.info is a mobile device design blended online wallet.
make sure that u have not downloaded it from blockchain.com ...there is a confusion going on regarding this site. trust blockchain.info only...

Electrum.
Why?
1. Coin control
2. Easy and minimal GUI
3. lightweight
4. No dependency
5. hierarchical deterministic wallet

Lately some warnings are coming from blockchain.info which are being discussed here. Follow it to stay secured.
Blockchain and Multibit
I use Blockchain because i can access my bitcoins on the go
I'd recommend bitcoin qt also but yea do play it safe and make sure your coins stay in your control.
Bitcoin QT is the official and safest client but far from the easiest to use. Multibit is simple, safe, has a good interface and syncs extremely fast.
How many of you here are using multibit over bitcoin qt? I want to start an additional wallet, but haven't decided which one to use... a lot of people seem to like multibit, but I already use litecoin qt for LTC, so bitcoin qt, seems like the easiest move...
Don't use blockchain.info wallet IMO
I have a better suggestion. Do not take advice from roslinpl, IMO.
Yesterday I found someone is in possession of my private key from my address that I have @ blockchain.info
No, you didn't.
and blockchain.info write me back :
"I am sorry to hear of these transactions that you did not initiate. I would also highly advise against ever using this compromised wallet again, as someone else clearly has the private keys in it. Changing your password & adding 2FA won't matter if the user has control of the private keys for that address. You need to never use that address or other addresses in that wallet again, set up a new wallet with new passwords & addresses, and enable Google Authenticator with that."

You imported someone else's private key, and then wrote to support asking about seeing someone else's transactions. What did you expect them to say?
So they do not feel the problem - just I need to never use my address again ... not nice and not good.
They gave the best advice they could under the circumstances.
And how come it is even possible that someone have got my private keys?
Crazy.
Crazy.
No, what is crazy is that you imported someone else's private key, and then panicked that you could see their transactions. Then you stole some money from them.
And is funny - I had only one address @ blockchain.info
Another address with same private key that someone else have was added to my wallet without me.

No. It was you who intentionally imported someone else's private key.
CRAZY
You said it.
