Tech Hint of the Week - Write down Your Passwords

 

Ditch apps and write logins in a notebook

©The i Paper

Davis warns against logging all your passwords in your notes app. “If a device is compromised, synced insecurely, or left unlocked, those credentials may be very easy to access.” A password book kept at home sounds like a bad idea, but Davis says it’s often a perfectly reasonable coping strategy, especially for people managing lots of accounts, or for those who need a system that works in the real world. “The motivation of someone stealing a notebook is usually not cyber crime. That risk is very different from reusing the same password across multiple online accounts. The bigger issue is whether the method helps the person stay organised without creating wider exposure.”

What you can do with Jelly Beans

 

At the Midway Social Centre’s Craft Morning, we love creating something fun that everyone can enjoy together. This week we made Jelly Bean Topiaries for Easter! This simple project was a big hit — easy to make, and the finished topiaries turned out so colourful and pretty.

We have some wonderful things going on at the Centre!

AND the NEW APRIL CALENDAR

Spring is Coming!

Here is the Calendar for April! Don't forget - we will be making Jellybean Topiaries for Easter NEXT Thursday! There is some prep work that needs to be done ahead of time (pouring plaster into the pots around the trunks so the trees don't fall over) we would like people to let us know if they will be coming so we have enough prepared a head of time. We don"t want anyone to miss out on the fun!
