The recent hacking of Gawker Media resulted in hackers publishing usernames and passwords. WSJ crunched some numbers and came up with an interesting analysis of most used passwords.

So, out of 188,279 stolen passwords, top ten used passwords were as follows:

1. 123456
2. password
3. 12345678
4. lifehack
5. qwerty
6. abc123
7. 111111
8. monkey

Believe me, I've done IT on my early days, and as people had to tell me their passwords, it was always a laugh

But monkey, I know why

spank the monkey? don't know what it is? google it or if you are really lazy
