Should You Use A Password Manager?

Now, you need to keep track of tens, hundreds, or even thousands of passwords! You can reuse the same password, but what if you want to have an even bigger password or be more secure? While, you can use a password manager! But, isn't that more insecure? You just have a big program/extension that you can open up, and it can be opened by anyone? While, if you don't have a computer password, set it now. But then, you can set up a password for your password manager! When you open it, it asks for a password.













Once you type it in, your passwords are there! There are 2 ways that password managers can work. First, a password manager can type in passwords for you. The second way is filling them in. And a password manager can generate THIS good of a password!

So, should you use a password manager? While, how easy is it for you to track passwords? While, you can choose that.

But what password manager to use? While, here is a long list of password managers and browsers with password managers you can use.

  • Google Chrome
  • Firefox
  • Microsoft Edge
  • Safari
  • Internet Explorer (DO NOT USE)
  • 1Password
  • LastPass
  • Bitwarden
  • KeePass (Only stores passwords on your computer)
  • RoboForm
  • Dashlane
  • Other versions of KeePass do exist
  • NordPass

Now, is it OK to keep the passwords on your computer in KeePass? Most of the time, yes. Now, the weird thing is that the only complete FREE password managers are the browser ones and KeePass. Those are the password managers I recommend. LastPass isn't even FREE! Now, KeePass somehow manages to make databases with 7 passwords in 5 kilobytes. If you had a couple MILLION passwords, you might be able to fit that into less than a gigabyte! But, that is kind of an advantage with browser password managers. But, overall, I don't know what password manager I would use!

TechyTommy Phones: IFTTT + Text Messages!

  A year ago, I did a blog post on a website called IFTTT! If you want to view that, click here ! But let me quickly explain why this is relevant to phones! Lots of carriers have a way to send text messages through email! This is carrier-specific, so you can't just send it to all phone numbers! For example, Cellcom has yournumber@cellcom.quiktxt.com and U.S Cellular has yournumber@email.uscc.net! (These are carrier emails for TechyTommy Email VIP users.) To use all of these, format your phone number like this: 1234567890! These are called "SMS to email gateways"! But what if your carrier is not listed here? Thankfully, there is a website with 92 carriers in the United States! Just go to email2sms.info  if your carrier isn't in this article! But how does IFTTT work here? While, IFTTT can send emails from your Gmail account! Previously, I was talking about connecting Gmail to Google Calendar, Alexa to Blogger, and Google Calendar to Contacts! But now, we can connect any
