Readers of Gizmodo, Lifehackerand other Gawker Media sites may be among the savvieston the Web, but the most common password for logging into those sites is embarrassingly easy to guess: "123456." So is the runner-up: "password."

On Sunday night, hackers posted onlinea trove of data from Gawker Media's servers, including the usernames, email addresses and passwords of more than one million registered users.

Other popular passwords are just plain-old geeky: "dragon," "superman," "princess," "starwars" and "nintendo." W00t!
