My linkedin password is an easy one. Then I checked 1password to see how many other sites I use that password on.

74 sites... including gmail, openid, facebook, skype, amazon, dropbox, reddit and this site.

Most of them are from the era before 1password - also, I didn't realize until now how bad it was.
