We got our first iPad delivered today and have had a chance to work with it for a few hours now.  And we love it.  Sure, it is a lot like an iPhone on steroids, but the iPad is so much more.  It is hard to describe how easy it is to do the things […]

We all know that it is a good idea to keep track of our credit rating.  Unfortunately, it often becomes one of those things you will get to later instead of staying on top of it.  I fixed that problem for myself about a year ago when I signed up for IdentityGuard.com.  I wish I […]
