title: Password hashing: Keccak or not
body: <p>The winner of <code>SHA-3</code> hashing algorithm contest has been chosen. The winner's algorithm is <strong>Keccak</strong>.</p>
  
  <p>I use Blowfish and really like it, but Keccak is said to be better. Is it worth to use it for storing user's passwords on my website?</p>
  
  <p>If yes, are there any implementations of Keccak for PHP, Python, Ruby or any other languages, used in web programming?</p>
  
  <p>I hope this question will help other people, too. Thanks!</p>
