REVIEW: KEYSMART KEY HOLDER & ORGANIZER

5 Comments / Portable, Reviews / By Khalid Hosein / February 1, 2015

Annoyed by your jumble of keys hanging off of your keychain? KeySmart offers up
their eponymously-named product to wrangle those keys into submission. KeySmart
consists of 2 laser-cut flat aluminum bars held together at its opposing ends by
screws. Your keys fit in between the bars and rotate around the screw columns.

KeySmart prides itself on a precision-assembled product, a process that they
show off in a video on their website, but it’s not a false claim. I could tell
this as I was going through the steps of disassembling and then reassembling my
unit.

MAINTAIN RECURRING TASK LISTS IN EVERNOTE

Miscellaneous / By Doug Felteau / December 31, 2014

Evernote has become a staple in my everyday personal and professional life both
as an archive for documents to maintaining dynamic lists. I have archived
documents such as manuals for my electronic equipment, recipes, work documents,
meeting notes, notes about health and travel and notes about practices and games
for the U8 Girls Soccer Team I coach. Additionally, I’ve found Evernote to be
very useful in maintaining dynamic lists including lists for shopping, wines I
enjoy and wish lists of items around the house I would like to upgrade. Even
more dynamic, Evernote has become my system of record for my task list using a
series of Notebooks and processes. I’ve used Todoodle, Todoist, Google Tasks,
Outlook’s notes, paper and more but have not kept a task list process as long as
I’ve used this system so I wanted to share with the Geek’s readers.

ANNOUNCING OUR BOOK ON COMPUTER PASSWORD SECURITY!

5 Comments / Books, Music and Movies, Computers, Gizmo of the Day, Holidays / By
Khalid Hosein / December 24, 2014

We are proud to announce that the geeks, yours truly – Doug and Khalid, have
written and published their very first book. We saw a great need for a single
source of compiled information and advice that the average computer user could
follow to improve and secure their online accounts and passwords.

Being in the IT and information security field, this is a subject that we speak
about constantly, and yet while there are thousands of articles online, there
were no books that nicely encapsulated all of that knowledge.

Every week, thousands of passwords and/or identities are stolen, and those are
only the breaches we know about. Don’t become a statistic – follow the
easy-to-follow advice in our book to greatly reduce your exposure.

As a holiday special, we’re giving it away tomorrow, Christmas Day, 25 Dec
2014! 

We’d love to hear your thoughts. If you have a few minutes, help out other
shoppers by posting a review on Amazon.

5 WAYS TO REDUCE ROAMING COSTS

Miscellaneous / By Guest Author / November 23, 2014

Sponsored Post

Mobile usage costs are something many of us don’t think too much about when
we’re home, but when we go on holiday, we often discover that it’s something we
should have considered. Usually we can connect just fine, but hostel and hotel
Wi-Fi is usually horrible, or ridiculously overpriced. Likewise, roaming fees
can crush an otherwise normal phone balance, leaving even the most careful of us
wondering how we managed to pull up such an outrageous bill.
