Longer usually does seem more cumbersome but I'm not sure if this is entirely true when it comes to passwords. At least for me, it's easier to remember the password 'rainy days usually make me sad' rather than 'r1d9u3m0m#s'. And I for one have a horrible memory : ) Louise @PawEng Thanks for the Passpack plug : ) I am glad you took a look at the blog and hope you found it helpful.

As you correctly mention on your passpack.com website, long passwords are more secure than short ones. The downside is that longer passwords are more cumbersome to use -- unless, of course, one uses a password manager such as Passpack :-) Louise, using a whole sentence as your password is an excellent idea.
