FAB OVER FIFTY
Posted on May 16th, 2010 by Joy Schwabach
The website FabOverFifty.com launches next weekend when the “fabulous women of Miami” meet the site’s founder for a Lifetime channel taping aimed at 51 million women over 50 in the U.S. The site, dubbed “FOF,” could also stand for “friends of friends.” It’s a place for women to hang out, get tips, share ideas, discover new restaurants, fashions, consumer electronics and travel ideas.

Examples: “Facts of Life,” with tips for skin, body, mind and budget. “Fab Faves,” where we learned about the tables “outside of Bubby’s” in the Tribeca area of New York City. “Exclusives” for bargain hunters.

One place that is certainly safe from this kind of intrusion is YouTube.com, which has numerous TV shows you can watch for free as well as movies delivered in chunks. If you can stand watching a movie with brief delays between segments, […]

FREE PASSWORD PROGRAM
Posted on May 12th, 2010 by Joy Schwabach
Everyone touts RoboForm Password Manager as a free online service for saving passwords. A new one we tried is PassPack.com, another free service that saves every password securely online. Sit down at any computer and recover those hard-to-remember passwords and “pin” numbers. You can also safely send passwords to colleagues, or share private messages. Start by logging in to PassPack and clicking on an icon to copy your password information to your clipboard. To paste it into your account, you can hold down “CNTRL” and tap the “V” key in Windows, or the Command and V keys on the Mac.
