Passwords: Be Sure Yours Isn't on These Lists

"Top 10 passwords 2008"
David Naylor Search Marketing (April 10, 2008)

Actually, it's four lists of top-ten, in various areas and years. Here's the first:
  1. (username)
  2. (username)123
  3. 123456
  4. password
  5. 1234
  6. 12345
  7. passwd
  8. 123
  9. test
  10. 1
The use of "password" as a password is in all four lists.

I'm not sure whether to say that this is a funny post, or an appalling one.

Maybe a little of both.

Actually, some of yesterday's news may be here. Or maybe last week's.
The software and science stuff might still be interesting, though. Or not.
