Too Many Passwords?


Have you ever really counted how many different usernames and passwords you have to remember?  I counted over 30!  That's way too many usernames and passwords for anybody to have to remember.  There's a great web-based password manager out there called Mitto.  Mitto can store and mange all your passwords with one-click access to all your favorite sites.  You can even categorize your passwords and share access to your services with password sharing.  This has proven to be a great service for individuals and teams who share common usernames and/or passwords for various websites.  If you have sites you visit for personal and business use, then you'll love the fact that you can tag each password based on its purpose.  Give Mitto a shot and begin simplifying your life today!

Can't Access the Internet?

You were probably asked to change your password over the summer.  Connecting back to the network has been the most common problem so far as we are returning from our summer vacation.  The most common fix has been quite simple.  In fact, it has been so simple it may surprise you!  Try to plug an ethernet cable into your computer - it's the one that looks like a large phone cord.  After it's connected........(drum roll please)........restart your computer!  This has actually taken care of most connection problems.  I understand this won't necessarily work for everyone, but it's worth a shot.
