For now, longer is better. Diceware is recommending 6 word passphrases.
I may have mentioned here that I occasionally house sit for a friend who lives in Studio City. (Some of you might recognize his name, but I'm not interested in name dropping.) One of the many things he's done over the years is write a column for what was then a major computer magazine. The password for his WiFi is[1] This_Is_A_Very_Long_Password, because he considers it about as hard for somebody to guess as anything else. Of course, the fact that he lives in an upscale neighborhood where somebody sitting in a car trying to hack into his system wouldn't get ignored might have something to do with it.
[1]Well, it's almost that. I've modified it a tad just in case somebody on this list wanted to connect to Chaos Manor, but it's close enough to make the point.
