Would you trust Google to manage all your passwords?

  According to a new report Google is working on a way to create and manage all yours password for you. It would even reset all your passwords when it detects one of your accounts has been hacked. Now although this could end up as a time saver and password helper it brings up the question "How much do you trust Google?". Just think if something like what almost happenend to Lastpass happened to Google?

 Personally I think I will still continue my method of coming up with my own passwords and managing them all my self. I don't think its a good idea yet to start syncing all our passwords with out online accounts yet. As they say "don't put all your eggs in one basket".

Google Plus now open to everyone..for real this time

 So you may have already heard but I figured since I have posted about it here before I should post an update. Google has (finally) opened up G+ to everyone 13 and up. So G+ is now as close as it will most likely get to being open to everyone.

 So for everyone excited about (finally) getting to take a look in head on over to http://plus.google.com/

 Personally I am in no hurry to switch away from Facebook but that is just me. I have no idea how many people are really wanting (by really wanting I don't mean just posting about it on Facebook) to switch but we shall see in the coming weeks.

MegaUpload taken down, Anonymous responds

 As you may have read this morning the FBI has taken down internet file hosting site MegaUpload for Piracy crimes. It did not take long for Anonymous to respond after hearing the news today. After hearing the news they knocked the following companies websites offline: Justice.gov, MPAA.org, and Universal Music.

 This is not the first time Anonymous has attempted at taking down government sites. This comes right after many sites shut down to protest the SOPA bill which is scheduled to be voted on soon. I highly recommend keeping your eye on the news to see what comes out about the bill as the vote gets closer
