I agree. People who say "don't write down your password" must either have few or easy passwords (or a very good memory). But good passwords aren't always easy and if you use different passwords for different puposes you need more than a few. There is no need to write down a password if you use "sunny4" on 123 websites to log into your accounts, to access your online banking and to receive your e-mails. But if you grant each account or webservice his own "good" password, you sure will get problems when not writing them down.
