What Do Your Passwords Reveal About You?

If you’re the type to use the same password for every site, I hope it’s a difficult one.
Something super hard to figure out, like: QRTxxxv2569286v~!*
That’d make people think you were deep, complicated and had a memory of steel.

Or, um, is it more like: Your First Name + Birth Year? – Sue1985 or Fred1946 – perhaps?
That would leave everyone imagining you were a simpleton, but a dolt with nothing to hide.

I hear quite a few people use the formula: First Pet’s Name + The First Street You Grew Up On
to decide a password, and that’s a bit safer. Or maybe that’s only a password used for peeking into Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee’s bedroom.

Here’s the question, if, God forbid, you decided to abandon your current life and disappear into a country with no extradition treaty… thus leaving unsuspecting relatives behind to clean up or take over your social networking sites, how would your chosen passwords reflect upon your legacy?

With that in mind I decided to change all passwords from things like: Ihate9876people,
to something more friendly, like: PeepsBeSoCoolMeLoveYouAll69, as well as smart stuff like: Nietzsche~#1.

I also granted certain social network account passwords to specific dear ones in my last begotten Will.
It’ll be doled out as follows:

My mother gets the Facebook because she’s older and that’s a comfortable place for the elderly. Just sayin.

My brother gets the Myspace because there are a lot of naked girls and he’s into that sort of thing.

I leave my Twitter to Ashton Kutcher because I figure, every once in awhile, he’d love to be an unknown, rarely followed, often blocked tweeter.

And last but not least, I bestow my Gmail to the Pentagon. I bet they could finally find the WMDs they seek after reading a few of my sent emails TO Ex-BFs from over the years.

Who would you leave your social network accounts to?
Your Facebook, Twitter, Myspace, Youtube… to whom, who scores which of these? WHY?
* What are the passwords for these particular accounts?
Have you ever seen the Pam Anderson, Tommy Lee video? I heard it was a big, huge,
very large deal, a long, lengthily long time ago.
