Don’t Use the This Year’s Worst Passwords…Try This Instead
How 1Password Solves Your Login Woes Last week, I blogged about the worst passwords of 2014 and how they made the NeuConcept staff want to both laugh and cry at the same time. Although I had a good geeky chuckle at what passes for login security with certain users, I also understand why they’re tempted to…
15 Worst Passwords
Were these users too busy, lazy, forgetful or just looking for a good laugh? We’ve all been there: you’ve got a million things to do at work, school or home and just need to quickly access that one email, bank transaction, school assignment or work project. And…you can’t remember your password. After some creative self-help…
Yummy Tunes
If there are any musicians out there, you missed some ridiculous chops a few weeks ago. I’m still recovering! 😉 I was very fortunate to catch Snarky Puppy at the Old Rock House in September. More a fan of the band than the venue. I learned to show up early which we did. I think…
Hilarious IKEA Catalog iPad Spoof
Bravo! This is an excellent example of Apple doing something right (enough for someone to copy them), and incredibly creative for IKEA and their team to develop such a humorous and accurate spoof. Love it and had to share…

Loving the New “Word Crimes” Video by Weird Al—Educational and Hilarious
Word Nerds across America are laughing and sharing Weird Al’s new video, “Word Crimes.” It’s a parody of “Blurred Lines” that cleverly covers grammar mistakes, plus throws in a healthy dose of insults to keep it interesting. My fellow English majors and writers are already sharing it and laughing out loud. Thanks to my buddies…
Inoreader comes to the rescue for RSS feed readers everywhere
RSS Trauma When Google Reader shut down last July, millions of RSS feed reading folks were left in the lurch. My husband, Brett, the tech genius of our household and this company, meticulously researched solutions as spends much of his free time reading feeds. (Most evenings, I inquire if he has “finished the Internet yet” which…
Celebrating 20 Years of Smiles: Markarian Orthodontics
It’s been great fun to participate in the 20th Anniversary celebration of Markarian Orthodontics. We’ve helped Dr. Randall Markarian and his team with marketing for over 15 years, so it’s been a blast to celebrate and reminisce how much things have changed. It’s also great to remember that the important things—excellence, customer service and trusted relationships—stay…
Help! I Don’t Get My iPhone!
Unlike the rest of the NeuConcept staff—and probably most other people my age—I was iPhone illiterate until 2013. To illustrate my ignorance, I didn’t even get what an “app” and “Apple ID” were, although I heard those terms bandied around all the time by savvy users. Oh the jealousy! Is anyone else out there in the…
