Blogger for iPad, the trial post!

I have just downloaded the blogger app for iPad. I tried to write a post on my iPad on chrome earlier and it was an interesting process. I could not actually select any on the side bar options or include photos. It was a little frustrating.

So far the blogger app seems to work better but I feel like I have less options. I can't see how to schedule posts or how to alter add descriptions. Although photos, labelling and location are all too easy.

Evernote; not just for iPad

Evernote is so so very useful for working on the go.  If you have Internet access and a mobile device or a computer you can access your notes from anywhere.  You can sync your files across multiple devices or access them from the web.  Best part is you get a free upload limit.

I currently use evernote on my iPad, mobile, and laptop.  But in the event I have none of these on me I can log into my account at Evernote.com, sign in and work away.  It has actually saved  documents from deletion what my computer crashed.

My only problem with Evernote? The platform is easy to use once you know how to use it, but for first time users it is not necessarily the most friendly product.

Passwords

Password are now a daily part of life. We need them for everything from email address to bank accounts.  Often we have so any that it becomes easier to have the same password for multiple accounts.  This is much easier to remember, however it is also dangerous!

A few weeks ago the company Evernote (excellent programme) was hacked. This means the emails and passwords of account were seized.  Thankfully Evernote blocked the accounts and issued a password reset globally. The problem lies in another area.

If the email address you use made use of the same password as your email account, this means the hackers can log into your email and steal your account.  In my case the password was identical to the one I used for PayPal.  This was a massive error and it was fortunate they didn't try to log Into PayPal.

There is good reason to have separate passwords for different accounts.  At the very least email accounts and PayPal,or similar services should be given unique passwords.  This way if one is hacked the others are safe!
