I know you, like others, think you do not need a password manager. You make all of your passwords by either; taking your best password and add a number to it. Or a difficult word, or another identifier that you can remember. Or even worse idea, use the same tough password over and over on…
Disposable email addresses, also known as temporary email addresses, are email addresses that are created for a specific purpose or for a limited time period. They can be easily created and discarded as needed, making them a useful tool for protecting privacy and reducing the amount of spam in your primary inbox. One of the…

Enjoy! • Ghtech.site/KeepInfo, this is some of the previous information I wrote and recorded regarding Google Keep. • Google.com/devices. This is the URL for where you find all…
I hope everyone has started a great 2023. It seems like I wrote the first article in 2022 a few weeks ago. I guess that is a good thing, especially since the DNR and you, the readers, have allowed me to write these tech ideas and thoughts for these many years. Actually, this is the…
