I have over 75 logins and passwords and this has been a sanity saver! And all for $30. Laura Dawn,

When I got their email and it hit me that I would lose my 400+ connections, I freaked out, and then I went digging through all my notebooks and listed every password I had ever used and then started trying them out. Now I've got index cards for all my different accounts. I'm just glad there was a happy ending. I was being proactive on a lot of my accounts…but the LinkedIn account fell through the cracks.

Funny, but just today I was thinking " I should really put together a comprehensive list of all my new logins and passwords." Now that I'm the gatekeeper of our Twitter, Facebook, Youtube, LinkedIn, and the new Wordpress blog, I have passwords and URLS and logins...and ....and I tried to keep them all the same, but you know how that goes. This site needs 6 characters, just letters. That site needs letters, plus numbers, plus you must add a % or a # or a * in order to create a usable password. And then, if you're LUCKY, the password you choose isn't already being used by another gatekeeper of social media sites...ugh...Glad you got logged in. I will admit, and only to you, that I have a program on my computer, that allows you to keep all your passwords in one place -- but...I forgot the password to log in.

Until I read this I hadn't given a thought to what might happen to an employee who suddenly did not have access to their email account to verify these accounts. Dawn this is a really good post.
