You know, I really support the local brick and mortar businesses in the area. Our local businesses support our local people and local economy, which helps us all. But occasionally, I also purchase things through online stores. Remember that many local businesses have online sales, so the line sometimes blurs. Today I want to mention…
Looking back on 2020, there were a lot of disappointments to say the very least. I remember Covid-19 as the first. Then other health issues related or not… who knows for sure. Death. Job losses by way too many gainfully employed people. Isolation from family and friends causing loneliness and depression for many. Financial loss!…
You know it bothers me when the larger, more trustworthy companies play with us. The reasons are usually altruistic; they of course want to help you. Make improvements and most important to them…make some money for their shareholders. With more money, they can add more features and updates to their software, hardware, or whatever. The…
For the past two weeks, we have reviewed the sites that I wrote about in 2020. What a year to remember…or for most of us, forgetting would be the better option. Today is the last look at those sites. If you see something that reminds you of another site, whether it is similar or for…
Here is the second part of all the sites we visited last year. Once again, if the site addresses are too long for print, I have shortened them using my “ghtech.site” predecessor.

The holidays are usually a great time of getting together with family and friends. I do not know how or if you are planning that this year, but I hope you have a great holiday season whatever you have decided. Also, as I have been asked this year and others, “Why don’t you write about…
In the past couple of years, I have written about how iPhones have had the ability to be able to text on Macs through iPhones. That way if you are at your desktop Mac and someone texts you, you can stop what you are working on, read the text in a large screen version, and…
You know the history of entertainment has changed tremendously throughout the years. I guess we first started with someone gathering around the fire ring to tell stories. They would enthrall the listeners with daring-do and excitement to escape the mundane of everyday life. In time things changed and we had bards going from town-to-town singing…
Earlier this year… I made a few suggestions about your password safety. One of the things I recommended, and still do, is LastPast, which you can find here, ghtech.site/lp-howto. Here is a very quick review of LastPass. It allows you to save your login credentials, such as usernames and passwords to the app. You create…
