For me personally, I prefer to do it the old fashioned way. I keep a simple note book where I write all my passwords down. You use a software program or even an old pda and then lose access, you're in trouble.
I guess, if water or fire was to destroy my notebook I would be in trouble too... no way is completely safe.
Don't get me wrong, I love technology and all that you can do with technology but sometimes, it's best to go old- fashioned.
All that being said, keeping it in a password protected excel file could also be a simple easy option although it might be advisable to keep it offline, on a USB / thumb drive for instance.

Here's a good example of a palm for $15.

Don't use it for anything other than passwords. If it has wifi access disable it. There is no reason to want to connect to the internet on these things anymore anyway. Just use it for password storage. Save all of your passwords in memos and then put a decent password on the device its self.

If you are dealing with a low impact data set (like an anonymous internet forum with no financial subscription); then a relatively simple password-name set used in many places will likely suffice.
For debit payment and low impact financial payment sites, I consider it acceptable to write your passwords down somewhere safe in your home office. These passwords protect things like your electric bill payment or a online pay-to-play game website.
Finally, you give the top security passwords and names to sites that may have some control over your financial status or information (bank, paypal, or Amazon). Sometimes they will force you to use your email for log in. Other times, some denomination of your name would be appropriate. The password should be secure, at least 8 characters. Of those 8; at least 2 upper case letters, 2 numbers, and 2 symbols. These passwords should be memorized, not recorded. Inspiration for the passwords should relate to the information they protect.
Now, generating secure passwords is fairly straight forward. I like to take a song lyric or famous sentence and transform it into a password. Here is my favorite system for creating passwords.
Best of luck!

I have a string of words, like a familiar phrase, that I rotate. I include area codes of phone numbers ( old ones not ones associated with my current area ) as well.
For example, "Felix the wonderful cat" and an code like "022"
gives you things like
Felix022thecat
wonderfulcat022
0Felixwonderful22
022FTWC
then I only have to remember the combination at the time or go through the last few if I do forget one
However, if you really have too many get a password manager like one of the other answers suggested :)
