Possibly funniest password ever!

I've found the best thing is to think of a vaguely related sentence that can be used for all. So something like "Why does Google always need one more password?" Alternating upper and lower case and swapping the number for a digit gives you WdGaN1Mp which is pretty much unguessable. Change the G for an F for Facebook or T for Twitter or whatever and you have a really easy way of creating and remembering really secure and easily remembered passwords.

I'd love to say it was my idea. Sadly not though, I think it was mentioned on a techy programme of some sort, probably Click.
