I use Lastpass with Google Authenticator two-factor authentication. Like most Lastpass users the only password I know is my master password, and of course it's the weakest. Lastpass has worked well, but going forward there are two majo

You sir, bring no value to the site as a reader, and offer justification for their move away from Flipboard. What if someone invented a slick, uniform UX for free mobile apps and repackaged them for easy consumption? Would you jump at the c
