Have you heard about the latest Social Media site?   Google Plus!   The super innovative Google has released the latest Social Media site called Google Plus.  I am super excited for this as I am a very huge Google fan.  They seem to have a way of simplifying everything and giving users exactly what they need.

 

Google Plus is only open for a certain amount of users and you must be “invited” to start playing.   I am personally very interested on what impact and opportunities Google Plus will be lending to small business.  Currently, they don’t have fan or business pages like Facebook but rumor is that will change as soon as Sept 1.

 

If you want an invite leave a comment and I will send one over.  I would love to hear comments about what kind of opportunities G+ will be giving small business.

We have recently completed some HIPAA compliant websites for some of our favorite clients. Examples include Idaho Falls based Mountain View Hospital and HPTH.org. One of the most important things when creating HIPAA compliant code is to make sure that users have super secure passwords. We ran into this article for some interesting information on why it is so important to have secure passwords.

Apparently if you create a 9 character password with lower case, uppercase, numbers and symbols it will take a hacker 44,530 years to hack your password. For those who choose a simple 6 alpha character lowercase password the hacker can gain access in 10 min.

The article is here PASSWORD SECURITY

It was really cold, so were had big coats on and Lindsey, in particular, looks like a fat alien. :) She had three coats on.

Google Apps is very powerful. Today they increased the power by allowing users to share folders in Google Docs. Now you can be even more organized and share groups of docs instead of just one at a time! Additionally, Google docs now allows you to upload multiple items to Google Docs instead of a time consuming one at a time.

A while ago I was watching my lead developer looking for a business in a phone book. This is an intelligent man, somebody who I have a lot of respect and admiration for, so I was curious when I walked past his office and saw him flipping the pages back and forth, a puzzled and determined look on his face. Naturally I asked what he was searching for, at which point he looked up, and with a frustrated sigh, barked out “I’m looking for a business I can’t find online.”

It wasn’t very long ago that a phone book was the only way to find the businesses that you cared about. The ones that were close enough to you to actually provide the goods and services that you were interested in. But now, for a growing number of people, the phone book sits gathering dust, a relic of a bygone era that sits on our desk or in our kitchen, patiently waiting to be used as a booster seat or to level out a broken table.
