Yep.. Dilbert did a series on Passwords this month as well. -----Original Message----- From: Dan Connolly [mailto:connolly@w3.org] Sent: Thursday, January 25, 2007 4:23 PM To: Rice, Ed (ProCurve) Cc: Mary Ellen Zurko; Noah Mendelsohn; Vincent.Quint@inrialpes.fr; www-tag@w3.org Subject: RE: TAG - Password in clear text. ;-) And how for something completely different... "Several months ago I decided to turn over a new leaf and start using better passwords. So when I got this cool new Sony Vaio laptop, I set it up with a really good password that I had never used before. It was long and it contained a bunch of mixed case letters and numbers and funky punctuation. I made sure nobody was ever going to guess this password. ... The new password on my laptop is "Eric". And just in case I forget my name, I'm going to write it on the outside of the case with a Sharpie." http://software.ericsink.com/entries/Technology_Dependence.html Read the rest for a chuckle.
