Ponderings 8/14/11

1. Getting regular (snail) mail from someone feels so much better than getting an email from that same person.

2. There is no way to remember all of your passwords. To make it even worse most work places and secure sites will make you change your password after 3 months. Anyways until sites move to bio metrics or lengthy quizzes here are my password guidelines:

A. Email is sacred and your most important account. Protect it protect it protect it and since you access it everyday you should use your most secure password and change it every 6 months.
B. Build a tier system where you use different passwords for different sites based on how important the data stored on them is.
C. For sites that you never know if you are actually going to use again just give a bogus password. You do not know if the site is actually secure and if you start visiting the site regularly you can use forget password functionality to change your password.


3.Shazam or another similar app needs to have a mode where it identifies every song over a period of time. So when you wake up the next day and have a song stuck in your head you can go back and find out exactly what song it is.

4. American football announcers need to learn from Spanish futbol announcers and start announcing touchdowns in the same way goals are announced in futbol. TouchDoooooownnnnn TouchDoooooownnn TouchDoooooown!

5. Friends should rotate a decision maker. On that day anytime a decision needs to be made the decision maker must make a call and the call is final.
