Bluetooth for cell phones!
Hands free use of cell phones can be very useful and allow for safer use when driving, but the darn cords that connect the headset to the phone is a real pain!

That is until Bluetooth enabled devices allowed for wireless hands free headsets! Whether you have a Bluetooth enabled cell phone or not, you can use the technology to free up your hands! Learn more about them at Technozone's web site.


What the heck was that ??!!@** password?
Today's Internet allows us to securely access everything from our bank statements to our e-mail to company networks.

But with this secure access comes passwords and anyone that has more than a couple has had the problem of remembering which username and password was used at what web site!

Tips for fighting Identity theft!

Every 79 seconds, a thief steals someone's identity, opens accounts in the victim's name and goes on a buying spree. As many as 1 in 50 of you have been the victim of Identity theft.

Most assume the Internet is allowing these thieves to grab our identities, but in many cases it is a low-tech crime.

Some basic tips for securing identity include:

- Get a good paper shredder

- Guard your SSN closely

- Monitor your credit rating at least once a year

- Opt-out of the pre-approved credit card offers

- Change drivers license # if the same as SSN

- Monitor your accounts online
