www.TheServerSide.com accounts hacked?

I just received an email from TechTarget, informing me of the 'recent' breach with user accounts of www.TheServerSide.com and www.TheServerSide.net. The breach reportedly occurred on Jun 3, 2011.
It has further said 'only' email-ids and passwords were accessed (it does not store any CC or SSN info)!
Seems like this is the season of hacks - Gawker, Playstation Network (PSN) and various other Sony sites, Toyota...who is next in queue of getting hacked?

PS: I have not accessed my account on theserverside.com for a long time now. Let me see if I can access it. Looks like they have updated the passwords. Sending a request for password reminder. Waiting to hear from them now...
