My work-​buddy Jeff has just put up a new site: Pass­word­Me­ter. Using a number of dif­fer­ent strate­gies, the site grades your pass­word to let you know how strong or weak it is. The site details what you’re doing write and wrong, and pro­vides some good guide­lines for cre­at­ing a good strong pass­word. Check it out.

He’s look­ing for ideas and improve­ments for the site, so if you have any sug­ges­tions, check out the Pass­word­Me­ter Blog.
