What is a homemade password pusher? Is that a method to securely send a password to a colleague or something?

It's very simple actually, some would call it insecure but it's just a means of sending an expiring link to someone where they can view the password temporarily.

Because people were sending so many passwords over e-mail or text messages so it was a necessity.
