Every once in a while, I see a commercial on TV that deeply annoys me. I really don’t like it when they take a couple of old people and make them seem ridiculously technologically-illiterate. You know the routine …. the poor old person tries to turn on the refrigerator instead of the computer or captures a real mouse and innocently asks how to make it operate the computer. GRRRRR…
Then again there are the old people who keep up with technology by making it work for them.
These two ladies are doing fine.

sharechair
/ March 13, 2013Passwords do get out of hand. So many! I finally started a password notebook. I just couldn’t keep track anymore.

/ March 13, 2013I’m going to borrow that tip from the old gal.
sharechair
/ March 13, 2013It is kind of a good idea…….
I remember for a while everyone was using “password” for their password, but that is now frowned upon. If it was only one or two, but these days you need dozens. I’m often told that I am incorrect.

/ March 13, 2013LOVE IT! You help keep us seniors savvy.
BE ENCOURAGED! BE BLESSED!
sharechair
/ March 13, 2013And you helped me with your “savvy” …. I realized I had spelled it wrong in my title! Ouch. Thank you for including the correct ‘savvy’ in your comment.

/ March 13, 2013You only see a commercial that annoys you only every once in a while????????????
Something wrong with you or maybe you don’t watch TV very often.
I pick option #1. LOL

/ March 13, 2013The answer is ……… DVR. My husband is a champion at forwarding through the commercials. Otherwise, I’m sure I’d be annoyed often.
Gemma
/ March 13, 2013That’s hysterical. Now I wonder how many people will change their password.
sharechair
/ March 13, 2013Am I the only one flummoxed by passwords? I just seem to have so many. Almost everything requires one. I now have a notebook dedicated to passwords. (I do have some on my devices in a secure password-keeper, but I really don’t trust that).

sharechair

/ March 14, 2013I have mine on a spreadsheet because when they ARE incorrect and I change them, I may have versions that are similar, but not the same, so I get even MORE mixed up! I love the old ladies! Go girls!!!
sharechair
/ March 14, 2013It is hard to keep track of them. A spreadsheet is a great idea. I should be that organized!
tchistorygal
/ March 15, 2013You should have my bad memory!!! hahaha M
