What are some methods for choosing a good password?

• Choose a word and replace some of the letters with numbers or symbols so that the original word is unrecognizable.
or
• Choose a phrase, such as the first line of your favorite song, use the first letter of each word of the phrase, and insert punctuation marks and numbers.
or
• Choose a common word, but as you type it offset your fingers on the keyboard one or two places up, down, or sideways. The typed word will then look like gibberish.
or
• The possibilities are endless, use your own method.
