370 Passwords You Shouldn't Use

We all know that we're not supposed to use easy-to-guess passwords, like our birth dates, nickname or the word "password."  It just makes it too easy for the organized crime hackers to break into your Twitter account (it happened to me) or web site (it happened to me twice.)

But we're lazy. We know we should create strong password and incorporate numbers and special characters like ~ ` ! @ # $ % ^ & * ( ) _ - + = { } [ ] : ; " ' < > ? / | \.  See "How To Choose Very Strong Passwords That Are Easy To Remember" at http://bit.ly/7zDq7y

Now Twitter has come up with a list of 370 passwords that you shouldn't use.  It just so happens that Twitter has hard-coded all banned passwords on its sign-up page.  It won't let you use an easily-guessed password.

See if yours is on the list below.  If it is, change it ASAP!
