New blog address

I’ve decided to move my blog from WordPress.com to http://jameszwier.posterous.com because it provides an easier way of updating it. It takes so long to get a post up in wordpress that I rarely get around to it. Posterous is much simpler, so I should be updating this more often. Also, Posterous shares my posts to facebook, twitter, and a dozen other places so I can update them all at once. You can subscribe by email here: http://jameszwier.posterous.com/members/add_subscription/?site=2765272Thanks and stick around for an eclectic mix of daily life, gardening, community development, and technology – the things that are usually bouncing around in my head.

This blog will no longer be updated but old posts will remain for archival purposes.

Instead, memorize only ONE super strong password and use a password
manager to randomly generate the rest. Do it this weekend. Don’t
ignore this advice, especially if your work or residence depends on
security. Your passwords are your weakest link. Read how to do it in
the article linked below.
