I don’t know about you, but I feel like I have a trillion logins and password for every single defining thing in my life. This is a quick list off the top of my head at 11:30 pm at night with a roaring headcold:
Internet banking x3 Work computer login Work HR login to see my pay and leave etc Work finance systems login x2 Gmail/Gtalk login ISP login and password VPN login and password Edublogs Twitter podOmatic Wikispaces Skype Windows messenger ICQ mIRC site meter PayPal Ning MySpace Everquest II Del-icio-us Comeeko flickr eBay Yahoo
and that is without drawing breath……oh and of course, the ever important atm pin number. How does one keep track of them all? Well probably like most of you, for the ubiquitous internet accounts I have (minus the bank) – I try to keep the login and password the same…however, you would be surprised at the number of people that want the monica of “fishgirl”. I am known as fishgirl, fishgirl7, fishgirl07, fishgirl_07, fishgirl_007 – you can see the increasing desparation as I try to stay as close to the original nick as I can.
It’s somewhat depressing.
Alex Hayes put me onto this. Have a listen. I think it says it all.
and on that note, my codral, my tissues and my stuffy head are crawling off to bed.
