After a short break its time for another round of weekly tech tips. This week's tech tip is on a topic that I find both incredibly important but also somewhat dry. So, to hold your attention I have inserted a few lol cats. I hope they are not too distracting. The cats may also serve as a catalyst for a future tech tip on memes. It has been a few weeks since my last one so this week's list of links and blog posts will be quite extensive.
