At some point or another, most of us have looked at the cable/internet bill and shuddered at how this cost just seems to keep growing. Since January seems to be a time where we all look at our bills and try to save money…here’s a little tip you might not already know. Look at your bill, and if you’re renting a cable modem (for a fee of anywhere from $5 to $10 a month), Canyonero can help you save some money by purchasing you your own cable modem, which pays itself off in a few short months. If it doesn’t affect you, think of your parents, or elderly neighbors that might benefit from this money saving tip! Give us a call, we’re happy to help quote out a model for you and let you know what you would be saving!

Nothing is worse than trying to log into a website and realizing you don’t remember the password. If you’re lucky, the website has a way to easily reset it….but many times you’re stuck having to remember your “favorite book”, or “favorite teacher” (or better yet, the favorite book or teacher back when you created this online identity). Your quick online task just turned into a 20 minute nightmare as you comb through endless possibilities of answers.
Enter Password Managers. These programs replace the hard copy password log books of yesteryear, often adding useful features like strong password generators, and the ability to sync to your smartphone or tablet. There’s a myriad of different programs to choose from, offering users different many different flavors anywhere from free to paid monthly services.

There are several different options out there for great, secure password management programs, and it’s time for you to consider one. Not sure where to start?
