Oh MY GOODNESS! Oh MY GOODNESS!!! I now have a new obsession! I have been on the ColourLovers site since I got up this morning! It all started when I woke up with this idea for a pattern. I call it "Broken Hearts Club" get it? I know...CORNY!!!
Anyway, something I thought about yesterday, as I was signing up for one of these "free tools", was that I needed to be careful with the passwords. The thought occurred to me that I, like most folks I expect, tend to use the same username and password on as many sites as I can, just so I can remember them...there are just so many to remember! And then I thought, that all these "free" sites could, if they wanted to, go to sites like PayPal and test the username/password combinations we so freely give them. BAM! They have us!
So, the moral of that story is: CHANGE YOUR PASSWORDS!!! I started making the password something like "stripes" if it a package to create stripes... or some other key phrase for that site.
OK, I'm off to find some lunch...it is 2:45 here and I haven't eaten today! HUNGRY!
snickering about the broken hearts club thing!
ReplyDeleteAnd thanks for the security tips. I know I have a tendency to use the same one.
