The Onosecond
Wired magazine once defined the 'onosecond' as the time between hitting 'send' and realising that you really didn't mean to send that to your granny.
What inappropriate email/text/photo have you sent to wrong people? Are they speaking to you any more?

Passwords
For some reason a few years ago I decided I'd had enough of the MSN Messenger application and fancied a change. Wanting to keep my contact list I decided a switch to Trillian was a good idea.
Anyway, fast forward a few days to when I need to enter my password to log into a website somewhere (the password for said site and my MSN account were the same). Little did I know that somebody starting a conversation with me while I used Trillian would open a window that would actually steal the focus from the current window I'm typing in.
So there I was, having typed my password and hit return, trying to come up with a decent enough excuse so the guy talking to me didn't figure out he'd just been given my password in plain text. I think I explained it quite well, all things considered. Needless to say MSN was back in action after this.
