Now, hubby and I have been using online banking for years…maybe even a decade now, and people always asks us questions about safety and security.

Video Tutorial: Adding a Bio and Updating your Password on a WordPress Blog
Thanks to my awesome website developers, I was introduced to screenr, a free screencasting social media service. They have a limit of 5-minutes to record, which is great because it forces people me to be as concise as possible, especially since my primary goal in finding a free screencast service was the ability to make [...]
