Android has two versions of Keepass. Make sure your read the details before you choose which one you want to install. The difference between the two is how/where you store your key file, either on their server or on the local sd card.

I stopped using Windamp for a long time until I purchased my first Android phone. After looking through the dozens of Mp3 players on the market, I saw my old fave, downloaded it and have been using it ever since on my phone. RIP Llama

I thought I'd share an interesting segment from Tina Fey's book regarding her honeymoon cruise when a fire broke out on the boat. "In the event of an emergency, it is the entertainers who are in charge of the lifeboats. Becau

I've been studying sailboats and living aboard them for the last year. You would be amazed on what tech is out there to be virtually self sufficient for energy, water and heating/cooling. A lot of this can transfer to a live abo
