    22 August 2015 | #Blogging#Development

    I've had websites, in one form or another, continuously since 1996. There has been a massive change in the ecosystem, since I started coding simples sites in Notepad. I've been through several tools, like Frontpage and Dreamweaver, and platforms like Drupal, Joomla, and of course Wordpress.

  • Passwords and Internet - Keepass and browsers

    6 October 2014 | #Utilities#Security

    Throughout a day, most of us use several online services that require some form of login. Considering that a password should be unique and difficult to crack, this can quickly become a cumbersome affair. Does it have to be this way? This is often the reason why we choose shortcuts and easy solutions, which may not provide the necessary security we should desire. This is where KeePass can help us.


  • Password management with Keepass

    Most internet users are probably aware that they should create complex passwords for online services they use, even though there are also regularly articles telling us that we may not be very good at just that.

    25 May 2009 | #Home#Media
