How to Quickly Generate Secure Passwords.

Its simple, use LastPass.

LastPass is the best Password Manager out there, it is Free (there is a premium version with Mobile support) and saves all your sites neatly into its secure vault. You can access the vault and all the sites inside it with a Master Password (the only password you need to remember).

When changing your passwords (or signing up on new sites) just press Alt G to generate a new secure password for the site. LastPass will ask you whether you want to save the newly created account (or changed password) into your vault. Just accept it and you are good to go.
