Another one bites the dust. Not sure how well they went about notifying people, but if you have an account there it is time to change your password.

And based on what I am seeing so far in looking at the hashes, it appears they upper cased all passwords. Bad bad bad.

    Indeed. And last.fm also appears to have been hit.

    (sigh) sadly, I use the same password for several things so I've had to reset a lot of passwords in the last couple days.... Passwords that I forgot this morning.... that I'll probably forget again on Monday morning.

    Lol tomomatic. I use LastPass, which is a cross browser plugin that remembers all my passwords and generates random ones when I need to. It's kinda cool.
