I use keepass to store my passwords and generate passwords. in addition, it is stored in a encrypted space I created using TrueCrypt.

a copy of the backup in usb drive.

One password for when #'s are required.
Three passwords for when they aren't.

Mine are 10+ long phrases.

I use five passwords;

three when numbers arent required, one when a number is required at the beginning, and one for when a number is required at the end. OI have no problem remembering them.

Memory.

I have about 4 different passwords that I use and completely change them out about every 8-10 months.

I use a set of random 12 numbers/letters. I mix them up. There are about 9 different combinations. I just have to figure out sometimes which combo I used :D

Memory, all of my passwords are easy to remember.

nountrees (two words that can be typed with one hand each)
0922852988 (my birthday followed by the last 4 digits of my social security number)
shaggy37 (my high school basketball nickname followed by my jersey number)




















Oh... it's not April Fools anymore.... dang.

I guess it's time for me to send myself a reminder for:

1. online bank account
2. ebay
3. amazon
4. newegg

I should really use keepass or something because remembering all four of the very
different passwords become difficult especially since I haven't logged into them for at least two months already.
