For example, my current employer has wide-open office space with pods of desks, but they also offer numerous privacy rooms for escape. As a mild to mid introvert myself, this allows for the best of both worlds the majority of the time: I can benefit from those casual, spontaneous conversations that pop up in the open space, but I can also grab my own room for an entire afternoon to crank out some heads-down work.
I think what's most important is for companies to acknowledge and respect the variety of working styles of their employees, along with the trust that--regardless of how chatting in a pod or hiding away from others might appear--more often than not they're getting shit done.

Leveraging song lyrics can be a helpful step in this direction: simply feed in the first letter of each word to create your password. Of course, you would need a fairly long lyric/phrase to exceed the benchmark noted above, but on a scale of 'hunter2' to '8%jFb#P", I'd say it's not bad :)
This is what I'm worried about with 'House of Cards.' It feels like they might have 1-2 good seasons left, but unless Frank suddenly decides to deceive his way into becoming world dictator, I'm convinced that they need to end the show in fewer seasons than it already has.
