I use LastPass to also store the username I used, which is handy given that:

1. Some sites use email, others use username (and sometimes your usual username is taken), and a handful of sites assign you something (eg: with an old VoIP provider I used to use, I had to log in with my customer number instead of a username)

2. I use a unique email address on every site, in the form "domain-i-am-logging-into.com@something.mydomain.com", though occasionally I have "companyname@something.mydomain.com" (eg: I use "amazon@" because I my account works with both amazon.ca and amazon.com)

LastPass remembers all this crap for me, and it also lets me keep other notes, password history, etc, as well as being quite convenient.
