Some websites are storing your typing patterns and it turns out that after some training, systems can identify who is in a system by the way in which passwords are typed. You can then be identified on other websites using the same underlying system. Paul Moore has created a proof-of-concept Chrome extension which changes the output of your typing to the website by randomising the rate at which the browser sends it to the website.
