What’s your password?
One of the best AJAXian features I have seen is on the Google (or is it Yahoo) change password page. When you type in your intended password, it displays beside the input a color coded bar that will critique your creativity. This tool will read your password as you enter it and hand down judgment ranging from “Poor” in the red to, well truthfully I’m not sure the terminology used in the green.
Yet, while I continually choose middle-of-the-road yellow passwords, I can rest easy knowing that the choices I am selecting are definitively not on the list of the 10 Most Common Passwords. These 10 choices make up 1.8% of all passwords used online. That is staggering!
