Mayor's Twitter account hacked


Chavez' Twitter account hacked Friday.
Albuquerque's mayor is learning a little something about computer hackers and Twitter.

Someone posted the Mayor Martin Chavez's password on Twitter Friday afternoon.

His password appears to have been his name and his birthday, something computer analysts always say you should never use.

Then, someone logged on as the mayor and posted "Probably should never tweet out your password… (This is not Marty Chavez)"

The mayor's office says it learned early on about the problem and took care of it.
