silly phone app idea

Anyone tired of losing your apartment key or forgetting your password to unlock a door> I was running to my room yesterday under the freezing weather. When i got to my door, what i pulled out of my pocket was my cellphone. My key was lost somewhere on the way when i run. At that moment, my only wish was to have my phone turn into my key. It's would be so much easier to keep. The phone is significant larger compare to the key. You can argue that making the key bigger can solve the problem but who want to carry a giant key around them anyway ? It's pointless to do that. I am thinking of a basic system where we have lock that receive signal from our cellphone. We can have our app store a binary combination and use as a key to decode the lock in order to open the door in a acceptable distance.

Hamlet 2

I really enjoyed this scene at the Tank. I think these two did a wonderful job. The guy pulled off a great diabolical persona and used his props really well. Ophelia also did a great job acting.

How to remove your digital footprints

I found this article on ways on how to protect ourself from unwanted snoopers. It lists of ways to remove our digital footprints.

1. Physically go into sites and clean them up.

2. Don't give any information you don't need to. (e.g. age)

3. Go to sites and ask that they remove information. The problem is that it can only be done site by site, and you can never tell how far the initial information has spread.

4. Start a professional blog to hide the old stuff. And hope that your old stuff gets buried.

5. Don't leave evidence of your Internet activities on public browsers. Come on now, don't click that 'Remember password' button.

6. The newest Firefox and Internet Explorer browsers have a tool that allows you to easily cover your tracks before you leave a computer. Basically, delete all browsing data, including page history and cookies.

7. Don't use the search engine offered by your Internet provider. They might connect your account to the cookies you have.

8. Use a specialized company to protect your information. Paying for someone to clean up your tracks?
