Here’s a little insight into my crazy world of computers and multiple devices ..
You see, ALL of my work revolves around computers, and I like
to have access to my resources wherever I am.
So here’s what I do to keep track of articles, websites and emails
I want to look at but don’t necessarily have time the moment I find them.
Essential Tools To Stay Synced
GetPocket – I use this to keep in sync articles I want to read whether
I’m at my home PC, work PC or at a café using my Tablet.
Google Reader – subscribe to the RSS feed of blogs you’re interested.
An RSS reader is a much better way to surf the web. Take a tour:
Google Account – I can access my Google account for email,
calendar, tasks, photos, files (using Drive) from anywhere!
Password Management
LastPass – a password safe you can install
on each computer you use (plus tablet or iPhone).
On the topic of passwords…
Your passwords need to be complex and different for each
website you register with.
How are you going to remember each password?
Here’s what I do (I recommend you do the same):
- figure out a pattern and use that to create each password
- store the password in LastPass so you don’t need to remember
it, but could work it out using the pattern if you have to.
What Have I Missed?
Do you have any software or apps you can’t do without? Let me know below

As someone who is not really knowledgeable in computers I appreciated the information on how to deal with all this computer “information”, especially passwords, something I really loathe trying to remember and keep track of.
Thank you.
Glad I could help Elaine. Just remember to make your Master password hard to guess, but easy for you to remember.
