Here here. I have one password that I use for most of everything in my life (as do many of us). It just makes things simpler, and I don't have to write it down to remember it. BUT, the Apple Developer site totally kills that concept by making me change it all the time. And I have to wait a year before I can go back to the original (normal) password. Now I'm back to having to remember (write down) the goofy altered version of my normal password I'm using at any given time.

Not secure. Not smart. Not a crowd pleaser.

I only used one password, too, 8 years ago, until someone behind one of the sites I used took it and broke into my accounts everywhere else. Since then, I have never used the same password twice, and I haven't had a break-in since then. A castle is only as strong as its weakest wall, after all...

Anyway, this is an area where the Keychain really comes in handy, since it's somewhat more secure than writing something out where anyone can see it. The Keychain Access program has earned a permanent place in my Dock. But I'm getting off topic, so I'll stop here.
