Remembers passwords so you don’t have to!

RoboForm, The best password protector, organizor, creator, reminder, software there is, period!

I first tried RoboForm about 4 years ago.  I was looking for a password manager type software because I was tired of forgetting them, and going through the long drawn out process of clicking on the “forgot password?” links that you find on just about every website around.  I wanted something that was more secure and user friendly than the password manager that comes with Windows.  I was also looking for something free.

Well, I found RoboForm through CNET’s Downloads site.  It was highly recommended, and at the time had a free trial, that only had some functions limited.  I can tell you, it didn’t take long before I was hooked.  They get you with the free stuff, and then you can’t live without it!

I finally bought an actual copy of the full version of RoboForm and I have never regreted it.  Of course now, everyone I know also has bought it!  My very techie boyfriend says it’s evil, but he can’t live without it now either.  He’s also become a RoboForm addiction dealer, because he’s suggested it to everyone he knows.  LOL!

But, it’s not JUST a fantastic password manager, RoboForm is also a fantastic form filler outter thingy (yes that’s the technical term).  Not ONLY can you fill out every form you come across with one click of the button, but you can have several different identities!  What this means, is if you are like me, and do lots of different things on your computer, you don’t have to remember all the information for the various needs you have!

For example, I have my main business information, my personal infromation, homeschooling info, blogging info, survey taking info, and online business info.  Each RoboForm “identity” can be named for whatever you use it for.  Then you fill out your name, mailing address, phone numbers, even credit card information, and whenever you need to fill out a form using the information that is specific to that business, blog, or whatever, you just select your identity, and VOILA! it’s filled out completely and correctly.  One click of the mouse!

I even use it for my sons and all of their many passwords that they have.  RoboForm is great for parents who, like me, want to have all the passwords for your children’s website habits.  You can print out all of the password information for any identity.  This means, that whenever you want to see your child’s myspace accound, all you have to do is print out their passwords, and you can get into it.  Which of course, is recommended by most experts.

So Basically, if you’re anything like me…. and you KNOW you are!  Then you’ve got a ton of passwords that are either all the same thing, or are forgotten before you leave the site.  There is no better friend to the internet addict, than RoboForm!  But remember, it’s addictive and contagious.  One try and you’ll be hooked forever… don’t blame me though, cuz I warned you! mwahahahaha

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!

Blogging that hits the mark!

Sassy Mama Bear @ The Cafe at the End of the Universe

Sassy Mama Bear has given Best HomeSchool Place a blogging award. It happens to be our first award as well! So we are extremely happy and excited about this! It really means a lot coming from such a great, and multi-award winning blog!

Now, for passing the bloggy love onto the next 3 deserving websites.  Envelope please…………………..

And the Awards go to:

1. The Accidental Mommies - For being cute, funny, and informative for moms of all sorts.



2. First Tyme Mom - For giving us a great look at what becoming a mom, for the first time, is like, and letting us into her world.



3. Heathen Homeschooler - For not just giving us great resources and ideas for homeschooling, but for also giving other Heathen Homeschoolers a place to get together online and communicate!

Please visit each of these great blogs! I’m sure you will enjoy them as much as I have.

I’ve already set up blogs for my sons to write on.  We did that before the summer started.  My original hopes was that they would have someplace to write their stories, complaints and stuff on there.  Someplace that they could express themselves.  The reality is, that they haven’t really wanted to do it.  I think part of it is because no one was going on their websites…. but that was before I discovered EntreCard and other things like EntreCard.

Thirteen Things Homeschoolers Never Have to Say to Their Kids

1. Where’s your report card?
2. If you don’t do your homework you can’t go out
3. Not on a school night
4. When’s Parent/Teacher night?
5. Why were you in Detention?

Or something like that… I feel like singing  “Ding Dong the Witch is Dead” from the Wizard of Oz because of the ruling IN FAVOR of Homeschooling in California.  It’s a good celebratory song, but it doesn’t quite fit.  ANYWAY…… for those of you who haven’t already heard, it is STILL legal to homeschool in California.

I.N.K. - Interesting Nonfiction for Kids is having a 15 Book Blast Give-Away! Which, of course, I’ll be entering, but I still want everyone who reads here, to enter also! There are some truely great books that are listed on this blog, and they are giving several of them away… all Nonfiction books, on all sorts of topics. So head on over there now!

First I was afraid
I was petrified.
Kept thinking I could never teach
‘Cause I’m not certified.
But we spent so many nights
Reteaching homework that was wrong.
I grew strong,
so now I teach my kids at home!
